"The 2008 Luigi Bosca de Sangre is a blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Malbec and 15% Syrah that spent 14 months in new French and American oak. It proffers an alluring nose of toasty oak, spice box, violets, earthy minerals, black currants, and blackberry. Firm, structured, and incipiently complex on the palate, this nicely proportioned blend will reward 2-3 years of cellaring and provide peak drinking from 2014 to 2023. "

"Dark, bright red. Currant, licorice and graphite aromas lifted by violet. Sweet, rich and juicy, with good energy to the flavors of black fruits, licorice and violet. Higher-pitched and more primary than most of the current Luigi Bosca reds, showing less nutty oak today. Finishes with a firm tannic structure and very good length."
