An exceptionally pretty and perfumed nose features notes of spice, dried flowers and sandalwood along with both red and dark currant scents. There is excellent richness to the caressing medium-bodied and overtly mineral-driven flavors that culminate in a delicious, complex, balanced and lengthy finish that still exhibits a touch of austerity. Like many of the better 2008s today this is still on the way up and I would be strongly inclined to hold this for another 7 to 10 years first as the firm tanninic spine is going to require time to fully resolve.
