Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
88-90 Barrel sample. A ripe, smooth, almost velvety wine that has big depths of flavor and solid tannins, but seems one-dimensional in its profile.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
90-92 Barrel sample. Spicy new wood opens a wine that is rather stretched, taut. The opulence of Merlot Pomerol is not there, but it has been replaced by a structured wine. When the wood calms down, this will be serious.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A wine that is dominated by new, spicy wood to the detriment to the fruit. You can feel the fruit, suggesting weight, but not taste it. If this wood calms down, then this could become a rich, velvety wine, but not yet.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
88-90 While it is dense, the wine does not have structure. It seems diffuse, the berry fruit element not in balance with the tannins.
