Robert Parker Tasting note.
The 2006 GRAND VIN is 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and the rest Petit Verdot. Sharp and aromatic in the Spring of 2009, it retains all the hallmarks of Castel, intensity, fine fruit, focus and ageworthiness, but it did seem a little reticent when first tasted. It has a bit more intensity and depth than the ’06 Petit Castel, but is otherwise fairly similar. The more I held it, though, the tastier it became. It didn’t really show its stuff until the next day, at which point the tannins were still there, intense and gripping on the finish, yet rather refined. The wine actually continued to improve with some air in the glass at that point, and it showed better on Day 2 than on Day 1. It also showed a little herbaceousness, and a cool, suave demeanor. Despite its elegance, it is surprisingly persistent and develops well. Retasted a few months later, it seemed to have pulled itself together and showed even better. Notwithstanding that it is mostly Cabernet, it reminded me of some Pichon Lalandes. Drink now-2017. 90/100 Points
