Friday, October 28, 2011 - WFA - 2008 Bordeaux Horizontal (Suntec Convention Hall): Nothing much on the nose as the portion was so pathetic that I requested a slightly bigger pour from this wine onward. Crisp entry with bracing acidity for the freshness and structured. The palate was wonderfully layer and balance, very fresh as well as delineated with just a touch of vanilla oak. This has the concentration to fully absorb the oak for sure, another 3yrs? Honey, grape fruits and floral tones leads to the rounded, polished finish with good length. 88-90
