  There is a reason why I served this at my wedding, it is a great white. the 08 is drinking great now, a bit of acidity has fallen off and the wine has rounded out nicely. It is a killer deal if you can find it.

  Drinking extremely well for something that's supposed to be past its peak, very balanced.

  Pricey for a SB, but well balanced at this age. Not sure there's much left so drink up! Impressive bottle I must say. Not your typical SB bottle but a massive Pinot style with a big punt.

  Rich and round without the typical grassy notes.
