Still young and tight but very good and will be much better in three years. Black cherry, blackberry, currant and some pepper showed after three hours.

Doesn't drink like a 2008.....much more depth. Textbook Burgandy nose. Sharp tannins and short finish.

Lean. Good mineral. A bit thin. Drink now or never.

Still quite young. Red fruited with plenty of acidity

Dusty tangy cherries and a bit of strawberries. Tart almost bitter at the finish.

Not really close to ready. Bright red fruit, high acidity and still some tight tannin. Might ultimately have too much acidity. Check out at age 12.

Really enjoyed. It. Light in body without being a pushover. If you needed one bottle for the whole menu, I can't imagine doing better.
