Fresh, zesty style, slightly lower body, not near that complex as 07 vintage that I had a case of 6 in the past and that aged very nicely and that I bought in 09 for CZK 150, this vintage is now for sale at CZK 175 and it is not as good wine and as good buy as 07 vintage. This was my testing bottle, will not buy more for my cellar.
