2008 - Chateau Olivier

"This is the highest score I have ever awarded Olivier, whose high quality 2008 offers up plenty of sweet red and black currants interwoven with notions of barbecue smoke and toasty oak. It is a deep, medium to full-bodied wine revealing sweet tannin, excellent concentration, and a layered mouthfeel. Enjoy it over the next 15+ years." -The Wine Advocate, 88-90 pts.
"Blackberry and blueberry aromas lead to a medium-to-full body, with velvety tannins and a medium finish. Fresh and minerally." -Wine Spectator, 87-90 pts.
