This is still a fantastic wine...what a great value! PnP thru a Vinturi and started drinking after 30 min. Great from the first sip thru to the last 2 hours later. Cracked open a 2009 at that point to compare and the 2008 was definitely superior...

De couleur rubis, d'intensité moyenne. Au nez, on a un concentré de fruits rouges avec des notes d'épices et de tabac, ainsi qu'une sensation chaleureuse. En bouche on a un beau fruité bien mûre, un boisé bien fondu, une bonne acidité et de la poigne. De longueur moyenne.

Bought two bottles after enjoying an 07 in an Italian restaurant a few years back; hated the first bottle I opened (awkward, starchy black fruit) and promptly forgot about the second. Until last night. Pleasant, just med body, tangy cherry fruit, not terribly complex but nice with a marinara sauce.

Received in a trade. Paired with a light salad.
Medium body, light tannins, bright and fruity. Not bad.

Robe couleur briqué foncé ... Nez sur les fruits et les fleurs ... Papilles sur les fruits confits et le chaume ... Belle finale ...
