St Henri 2006

[rwatkins]

Hi all, Any thoughts on this new release? Just came in to Canada and is $51 Canadian. I have seen it on some sites $75 Aussie!! Our store here in Winnipeg only got 5 bottles to sell. I bought one just because I recently had the 2002 and it was outstanding!! I know the 2006 Bin 389 has recieved some positive vibes so hopefully the 2006 St Henri is great too. Any thoughts? By the way, got to meet Brian Lynn from Majella (Spelt right?) yesterday as he was in Winnipeg for a visit. Great guy and the 2004 Mallea was stunning!! Our owner found a bottle of 98 Cab in her cellar and we tasted it against the 2006 - both great but the 98 was so interesting with the depth of flavors and superb nose. Thanks - Rick

Getting too expensive in NZ. It is $75 here when Cellar Reserves are only $89 so St Henri seems a dumb buy here at the mo. Haven't tried the 2006 sorry
