Tasting Notes
The classical and harmonious 2008 Faustino I Gran Reserva is very polished and balanced with clean, focused aromas and flavors, balsamic with notes of cigar ash and incense, a bit shy and austere. A very good vintage for this bottling.Drink date: 2018-2022. Score - 90. (Luis Guti�rrez, robertparker.com, Feb. 28, 2018)
