87-89 Barrel sample. Very soft and rather fat, this overextracted wine lacks the lively acidity that seems to mark 2005. The fruit is therefore heavy in the mouth, without needed structure.

88—90 Barrel sample. A spicy, wood laden wine, kept afloat with ripe blackberries and fresh tannins. Excellent acidity to keep the wine buoyant.

91-93 Barrel sample. Fat style, almost Burgundian in its creamy character, a full-bodied wine, with plenty of ripe, yellow fruit and mango flavors. Big, bold.

90-92 Firm in character, with tannins that dominate. There is a good weight behind the tannins, with black fruits likely to come through well.

90-92 The wine has rich citrus and pear flavors, with weight, an oily texture and balanced wood spice to finish. Well structured.
