* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012

91-93 Barrel sample. Solid, dry tannins, very firm and hard, but they are also ripe. The wine has high extraction, very dark fruit flavors, but resists being too huge. This could well turn out to be a very elegant wine.

90-92 Barrel sample. Tannin dominated wine, very solid, chunky. It has a very dry, firm core, with the surrounding fruit extracted and tight, just a final hint of juiciness.

Tight, firm and tannic, this is a very dry wine, the fruit smothered in tannins. With time, it could develop, but the stark texture currently is not promising much.

89-91 Barrel sample. With sweet caramel aromas, this is a jammy wine, all sweet fruits, richness and not much structure. A wine that shows warmth and ripe fruits.

91-93 The wine is tight, densely textured, very firm in character. It has considerable weight to go with the sweet fruit, very powerful.

This is in the firm, rustic style, the tannins solid and chunky. Smoky fruits meld with the dark tannins, though the fresh, edgy texture is missing weight.

Light, soft and easy wine. It has some attractive smokiness, followed by spice and bright fruit flavors. But the tannins are muted and the wine lacks weight.
