Bright ruby color. Deep bouquet of black currants, plums, and spices over notes of eucalyptus, wintergreen, and underbrush. Long, rich, and powerful, with an Umami element that drives the elegant, dark fruit flavors. It's still tightly wound but has such a beautiful spine that it will express itself beautifully if given the chance to integrate.

Found it in my cellar, past its prime but still sold.

Great wine, I've got a dozen each of the 2007 and 2009, but this was the only 2008. Love it.

Wine is too young to drink. Very heavy tannins
