I'm planning on getting some, I generally find dependable. I loved
2004, 2005, and 2007 (06 was good but a bit ripe for me) - I think 08
should be fine. I'll probably add some to next time I get something
from WineLibrary ($18). I like Envoyer, but their shipping is high,
which makes a difference with under $30 bottles.
