"The best barrels of Cabernet Sauvignon from the 2008 vintage are concentrated and elegant. Dark stone fruit, potpourri and basalt unwind with aeration in the glass. This wine develops with the maturity of a Cabernet Sauvignon that evolves significantly with decanting and will cellar effortlessly for decades to come. Cassis, currant and blue fruit with purple flowers and toffee. There is considerable finesse in the wine’s complexity. Fine grained tannins support balanced fruit and secondary flavors that finish with great length."
