PopnPour, tasted over 2 hrs -nearly opaque dark red-purple, no bricking -moderately expressive and pretty nose of spice stone iron high-toned candied red and black fruits -med+/high acidity intensifies with air lending a distinct sour note to the med weight rich but not overly complex fading earthy red and black fruit liqueur, med fine tannins, good length -exactly what one might expect from an '08 NSG, probably nearing its peak drinking window
