This wine is a sure thing year after year after year. It seems to never show as well in its youth as it does at age 4 and up. (The 2006 is still drinking great in 2012.) The 2008 vintage is again full yet impeccably balanced, the 14.7% alcohol not at all intrusive. Beautful soft peach and nutmeg aromas and flavors, long, elegant, and ripe-feeling in the mouth. - HK 2012-08-04
