This dark plum/ruby-hued, tannic, rustic effort reveals some astringency, but it has plenty of concentration, purity, texture and length. For a 2008, this medium-bodied wine is surprisingly unevolved and will benefit from several years of bottle age. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2025.
Bright crimson. A little over-developed on the nose. Rich and mild and pleasing but without great character or density. A bit aggressive in terms of tannins - dry finish - though not great concentration. Bit old fashioned.
A very good effort, the 2008 exhibits sweet black and red fruits intermixed with mocha, smoke, and new oak, medium body, and good concentration, acidity and sweet tannin.
