Saturday, November 10, 2018 - 2018 Villa d’Este Wine Symposium – Kelly, RJ, Justin and Kevin's excellent adventure; 11/7/2018-11/11/2018 (Villa D’este, Lake Como): Beautiful color of pale red with a hint of orange that I associate with the vintage. Expressive exotic kinky ’08 DRC nose displaying bright candied red fruit, strawberry candy, cherry, candy, a hint of stem, cannabis, Vosne spice, already showing a hint of sous bois, cola and limestone mineral. Beautifully integrated energetic palate, finely layered candied red fruit, silky and lean, bright acidity, strong limestone mineral and a long candied red fruit driven finish with cannabis and stem at the end. It lacks the depth and concentration compare to the other wines but is drinking beautifully. I can easily drink a whole bottle without getting bored.
