Beautiful color, nice nose. Lots of sediment. Decanted for 90 minutes. Not as masculine as the past Staglins I have consumed, however still fairly complex. Smooth and medium finish. I am not sure this will improve with anymore time in the bottle. Purchased (6) 08s at auction last year and intend to drink them all between now and Christmas.

Bought 5 bottles recently at auction. Opened and decanted for 1.5 hours and enjoyed with a Delmonico roast. Outstanding and ready to go NOW! My other 4 bottles won't last a month.
