I've not put your "marks" in a spreadsheet, but it appears that the 2008 reds are a relative disappointment to the 2009s.

It seems from your notes that many of the 2008s seemed to be faulty or disappointed and perhaps should have been declassified (as was all the red at Domaine des Trinites for example).Grahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11282937250538290233noreply@blogger.com
