Hallelujah, no signs of oxidation ere! Butterscotch and a hint of caramel on the nose.
Pineapple and five spice on the mid-palate confirm this as a fine example eight years in. I purchased a case of this vintage, and the majority were oxidized. Good robust acidity and moderate sweetness suggest that this bottle has longevity.

A good chard, showing the typical Sonoma focused signature, with good weight and mouthfeel. Just a touch oxidized. 90 pts due to oxidation. Drink these yesterday.
