Friday, December 26, 2008 - Aye carumba! What a nose! Just in your face and gorgeous, full of beef blood, iron, strawberries, raspberries with spicy and floral hints. As for taste, I’ve always liked, not loved this wine as I find the acidity this vintage to be a wee bit too high for my tastes. However, a bottle I had in San Francisco this past summer showed the wine to have been nicely integrated with the acidity somewhat tamer. This bottle was bit more forceful and less integrated than that one and, once again, I found the acidity just a bit more persnickety for me to fully embrace the wine, though it is indeed very enjoyable. Like flavors as aromas. I’d still wait on these a little longer. A-.
