Tasting Notes |
Matured in 47% new French oak for 19 months, the 2008 Le Sol has a dense blackberry, black olive and blueberry nose with good definition and purity. The palate has good weight, plush but firm tannins with notes of blackberry, blueberry, tar and a dash of black pepper, leading to a grippy, tannic, soy-tinged finish. This will need 5-6 years bottle age but this Le Sol is showing more edginess than in previous vintages, which serves to enhance the intrigue. Drink 2013-2025. |
