2008 Indomitable
"Strength does not come from physical capacity.
It comes from an indomitable will."
-Mahatma Gandhi-
A selection of the finest barrels of the vintage, this year’s Indomitable is very similar to a classic First Growth in structure. It showcases gorgeous black currant, cedar, blueberry pie and Asian spice flavors. Aged in the bottle for more than a year after two years in 100% new French oak, the firm tannins make for remarkable structure and a smooth ripe finish. The opulent fruit mixes with crème de cassis, coffee and mocha, finishing textured, rich, full-bodied and silky. Drinkable now or over the next decade.
