This year the winter was mild, the spring warm and the summer cool and dry. In short, everything needed to make 2008 an excellent year. The color is a bold, concentrated and luminous ruby while the aroma is young and evolves with tones of small red fruits, aromatic herbs, in particular rosemary, and vegetal hints. All the impetuosity of youth is evident in the mouthfeel, with a spirited progression underscoring the body it has in abundance. Tannins remain the lead player but the saltiness is strong, as is the acidity. Very persistent.
