* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A solidly tannic wine, the dusty tannins suspended in the chunky fruits. Black currants are prominent, but so is a rich character that is developing well, aided by the sweet wood that balances the wine’s initial dryness.

Smooth and soft, with an attractive perfumed character layered with wood toast, pear and peach flavors and lively acidity. This is finely balanced, still young, worth aging another year.

A rich wine that shows plenty of berry fruits, supported by some dry but dusty tannins. This is a wine that is going to develop with its firm powerhouse of ripe fruit that is emerging from a tight period in its development.

Big, rich, dusty tannins and black plum fruits are built on a firm layer of wood. There is a fresh mint character as well, giving the wine a polished and spicy feel. With the wood and the acidity, this needs aging: 3–4 years and more.

This wine revels in the great lemon and apricot flavors of 2007. With just a touch of wood and spice to give extra structure, it dances crisply on the palate, good for apéritifs but also with food. This is a wine that is delicious, for its freshness, to drink now, but will certainly age over 2–3 years.

A smooth, ripe wine, with eucalyptus aromas and layers of new wood. At the same time, it doesn’t lose its origins, the structure of Cabernet and the ripeness of Merlot showing through well in a wine that has benefited from the 2005 conditions.

A rich white wine, its toast character submerged in a generous peach and apricot ripeness. There is an attractive lemon zest acidity to give a bright shot through all the richness. Worth aging 2–3 years.

Luscious apricot aromas, followed by light tropical fruit flavors, fresh acidity and green plum skin structure. There is a light layer of toast from oak aging. Ripe, relatively full-bodied, with a delicious, long toast and fruit aftertaste.

This has richness, structure, a very direct style of Bordeaux. It shows spice, berry acidity, some appetizing sweet juiciness and a firm layer of dark tannins. The wine has good balance and richness, but finishes with plenty of fresh acidity.
