This isn't half bad, better than modern Basils, in my opinion, but not great. It's real thin throughout, and while the flavors aren't overtly negative, there is definite youth, even for an 8 year product. That said, I'm impressed compared to what I've had of Basils in the past, and that ain't half bad.
