In general, the year saw a warm start to the summer followed by a wet and cool August, but fortunately a warm and sunny autumn saved the harvest in many places. This meant that the winegrowers often had to sort thoroughly, but the effort was rewarded with wines of high quality and great complexity, just as \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vin-1996\"\u003ewine from 1996\u003c\/a\u003e also showed strength in certain regions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEuropean favourites\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eItaly had a particularly good year in 2006, especially in Tuscany and Piedmont. The ideal weather in September and October provided optimal conditions for Sangiovese wines such as Brunello and Chianti, which appear full-bodied and structured with aging potential. The Nebbiolo grape also thrived in Piedmont, resulting in powerful wines with marked tannins and depth. Further north in Burgundy, the vintage is considered classic. Here the weather was more challenging with the risk of rot in August, but the warm autumn ensured maturity. The red wines from Côte de Nuits and the whites from Chardonnay ended up being elegant and fresh with a focus on balance and terroir. In Spain, Rioja also delivered complex wines in a traditional style that today show great finesse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTaste and character\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you enjoy wine 2006 today, you will experience an exciting maturity, just like \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vin-1986\"\u003ewine from 1986\u003c\/a\u003e can offer developed aromas. The Italian wines have retained their structure and offer intense notes of dark berries, leather, tobacco and mint. The tannins are still firm, but feel more integrated in the taste. For wines from Burgundy and Rioja, the expression is often characterized by the aromas that develop over time. A red Burgundy will typically offer pure fruit and soft tannins, while Rioja spoils with spicy tones and flavors of dried fruit such as figs and raisins. These are wines that drink superbly now, where the original fruit meets the complex layers of ageing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGood advice for serving wines from 2006\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the wines from 2006 now have a certain age, they require some care to ensure the best experience.
