Love the 08's. Bright, red, some mineral. Great textured length.

Explosive red fruit, dark spice and floral aromas dominant. Tight but blossomed with hour decant. Acid and tannins yet to evolve but promises to be a quality expression of Taillpieds some day.

Crazy young and fresh. Actually too fresh. Hella tight. Drinking this at least a decade too soon. But the sour cherry fruit and earthy tannins were starting to show. Probably gonna be great one day.
