After having the 2005 not so long ago, we decided to open the 2006 this time, again with aged gouda.This 2006 showed a perfect balance, pure silk on the palate. Seemed a little less oxidative and maybe less acidity than the 2005 but still with a nice nuttiness with spices and a super long finish.
Man, this is GOOD !!
Have you had the 2004? I feel it's better than the 2005 and 2006 (though I've drunk only 1 bottle of the 2006 so far). 2004, btw, is, I hope in a funny stage at the moment...last two bottles weren't as good as the previous ones.
ReplyDeleteKK,
ReplyDeleteI haven't had the 04 but would love to try it.
Unfortunately, past Macle vintages are pretty hard to find.
I'll try to find some back home.
Thanks for the comments on the 04. I'm surprised to see it going into a dumb phase though. Very interesting.
