2008 Offley LBV

Post by AW77 »

D+0h: smells of sour cherry, no deposit, D+6h: dark as ink, subdued smell of sour cherry, light body, not that sweet, sour cherry in the mouth, smouth in the mouth, but surprisingly quite a long finish (15-20 seconds), tastes altogether quite pale and more like a one-dimensional reserve ruby, is it too young or simply not good? (I had expected more after reading the praise for the 07 LBV here on this forum)
