2006 David Duband, Morey St.Denis 1er Clos Sorbé
Medium, medium-plus colour. Wide and high-toned aromatics, meaty and spicy but with more limited depth. Plenty of tannin, but it’s ripe and has a only a little astringency. The rest is well balanced and shows quite classy fruit with good complexity that’s judiciously edged with dark oak. From a density perspective, there’s less material here than many village wines from 2005, but it remains a good wine. Leave a year or two to let the tannins fade…
Rebuy – Yes

From the appearance of the cork and how far the wine has travelled along it already, I wouldn’t want to keep it for much longer than that anyway. Incipient cork failure in a year or three unless cellared very, very well by the looks of it!
The faintest of staining up-to two-thirds of the length of the cork. From every angle it looks okay – I see nothing of real concern to be honest Geoff…
Corks aside has anyone tasted his ’02 Sorbe?? Thanks.
