Community Tasting Note

91 Points
Wednesday, September 18, 2013 - nose: pretty intense, with apple, orange rind and a festive, holiday nuttiness.
palate: high acid, but with a very plush and fruity feel to it, this was really quite lovely. The fruit was full and bouncy, like a happy 2008 should be. Long, long finish of nutmeg and lemon. Well done. .... at $65 this is a little on the high side for me, but it is so tasty the other drinker in the house doesn't even realize it is low dosage (shh...don't tell!). 91+
disgorged Oct 2012.

FYI- You can find it for a better price ($50), shh.... :-)
