Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
I liked last year’s release of Maxwell Four Roads and while I like this 2008 (very) slightly less, I’d still be more than happy to buy and drink this. Juicy. Fruity. Generous in what it has to offer. It tastes of ripe raspberries and tar, spice and earth. It’s quite tight with tannin at this early stage of its life, though it should soften relatively quickly. This is a wine with nice flavour and nice proportion. Score: 90 Source: Campbell Mattinson, winefront.com.au
