Recall 2007 had a very bad end to the season with heavy rain so it was expected to be poor. Most wineries weren't even pouring the 2007 last year it was so rough. This year was the first real taste and against many 2008s.
Generally I thought the 2007s were showing better. The 08s just seemed weak in comparison. Granted the 08s have less time on them. Maybe they'll reverse spots after some cellar time?
I'm not posting this to be snooty, just curious if others have any experience here. Definitely anxious to try this wine out after your review! Thanks PDEMAIO!
