"Good deep red-ruby. Expansive, complex aromas of flowers, licorice, graphite, tobacco and sexy oak spices. Sweet, sappy and lush, with captivating energy to the fruit-driven flavors of dark cherry and raspberry. Finishes with suave but very firm tannins and a slightly medicinal note of licorice. Prost intentionally showed this at the very end of the line-up of 2006s to make the point that this big boy could stand up to Bouchard's top examples from the Cote de Nuits. It is indeed impressive, even if it can't match the estate's grand crus for length."
