Smooth and round, with a lovely polished feel to
the dark berry, cherry, licorice and spice flavors, flowing easily
over finely tuned tannins, persisting expressively.
Drink now through '16. |

Jay Miller - Wine Advocate
The 2006 Evenstad Reserve is a blend of over 70 lots.
Medium ruby-colored, it offers notes of cedar, cinnamon, clove,
cassis, and raspberry. This is followed by a medium- to full-bodied
wine with layers of complex red fruits, enough structure to evolve
for 3-4 years, excellent integration of oak, tannin, and acidity,
and a lengthy finish.
Drink it from '10 to '18. |
