Lighter in style than the 2007. I tried the 2008 at the winery before purchasing, but this bottle did not present as well. Plum, blue fruit and a bit of white pepper, with slightly overpowering acidity on the first night. Presented better on the second night with that acidity a bit more in check.

Delicious. Red berry, a smoky note (not overt oak toast), nice acidity and medium-length finish. Very enjoyable, drinking well presently.
