The 2006 Roble is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Tempranillo, and Merlot aged in French and American oak, 20% new, for seven months. Dark ruby-colored, it has an enticing nose of cedar, spice box, leather, and assorted black fruits. Medium to full-bodied, dense, intensely flavored, and structured, this lengthy effort will benefit from 1-2 years of additional cellaring and provide pleasure through 2016.
