World Class Wine perspective
About this wine
A candidate for wine of the vintage, the 2008 represents 40% of production, blending 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot, and 4% Cabernet Franc. Unsmoked cigar tobacco, lead pencil shavings, crème de cassis, earth, cedar, and asphalt emerge. Full, rich, and stunningly concentrated, it is classic, complex, and slightly forward, drinking in 6–10 years and enduring at least 30–35.
