Drink 2010–2017
The 2008 Johann’s Garden is a GSM blend of 59% Grenache, 29% Mourvedre and 12% Shiraz, with significantly more Mourvedre in the blend this year presumably due to the relative success of this grape in this difficult vintage. Medium-deep garnet-purple in color, it reveals fragrant aromas of black raspberry, cherry compote, spice box and earth with some anise and red blossom. Full-bodied, rich and spicy in the mouth, it has great balance with a medium level of velvety tannins and refreshing acid lending support to the concentrated warm berry fruit. The finish is long and earthy. Delicious now, it should cellar to 2017+.
