Grey Label Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

Member Review by ECD1955:

Recently did a comparative tasting to the 2005. The 2006 is of course more closed at the moment. While both are full-bodied the 2006 is generally lighter and less tannic than the 2005. Neither are really at their peak but I would try the 2006 again in 2011 as a 5 year old and leave the 2005 until 2012 or so. Expect they will be drinking very well at that point.
