Very underwhelmed. Developed but not complex. Alcohol a little disjointed. Not enough of the flavors I expect.

Dark horse of the night. Still fresh but in general a well-timed bottle.

2008 just losing its baby fat. Perfect for tonight's fig balsamic pork tenderloin & Stanley Cup Final.

What a wonderful wine! Elegant and elevated with light cherry, rose perfume, baking spice and tobacco flavors. Seems full of life 17 years after harvest and absolutely sang with grilled lamb chops.
