  Drink now. This is now starting to fade slightly. Not bad, but just a bit of maturity/oxidation.

  This is not as good or "showy" as the 07 (92p), but it is starting to show a minerally depth that is really interesting. All Boucauds that i've tasted show more complexity on the palate rather than having an expressive Sauvignon nose. Drinks nicely but will keep another 2-3 years.
