The 2006 Crognolo is a touch more aromatically expressive and structured than the 2007. Dark cherries, earthiness, tar, smoke and licorice emerge as this focused, vibrant wine opens up. The long finish is elegant and sublime. As delicious as the 2006 Crognolo is, I have a slight preference for the 2007. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2016.
