  I'd never tried Marsau before and was really quite impressed. Plush, modern style with 14°, but this doesn't show too much, nor does it detract from the pleasure. Rich, dark cherry flavours with a touch of light herbs and vanilla, smooth and silky, there's a refinement and elegance that I wasn't expecting. Like many other 08s, it does taste much older than it is, not necessarily a bad thing, but it does need drinking over the next year or two.
