The purple-colored 2006 Reserve is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Cabernet Franc, 10% Merlot, with the balance Petit Verdot aged for 36 months in 100% new French oak. The slightly reticent nose gives up aromas of toast, pencil lead, violets, spice box, a hint of balsamic, black currant, and blackberry. Smooth textured on the palate with ample spicy fruit, moderate ripe tannins, and good volume, it will continue to evolve for another 2-3 years and offer prime drinking from 2013 to 2021. The current releases from Nicholas Cole Cellars (owned and operated by Mike Neuffer) range from very good to outstanding.www.nicholascolecellars.com
