After making a number of changes in direction over the past decade, this winery has now had the same marketing director in place for the past four years, and winemaker Genevieve Janssens assured me that the team here has been given the "simple" task of making the best wines possible. Janssens told me she thought the young 2006 cabernets lacked a bit of substance in the middle palate, and in fact these wines came across as rather tannic when I tried them in early March. She noted, however, that the 2005s were also tannic early, but are more harmonious today.
