A sleeper of the vintage and better than its 2010 sibling, the plum/garnet-hued 2008 possesses a smoky barbecue, charcoal/burning ember character intermixed with ripe, sweet cherry and black currant fruit. Medium-bodied and beautifully concentrated with silky tannins as well as a long finish, it can be enjoyed over the next 10-15 years.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 17/20 points.
