91—93 Barrel sample. Intense and rich, with powerful honey flavors. This is a wine that will impress by its power, but will probably also age well.

87-89 This is straight down the line, with dry botrytis and acidity, touched with richness. It has freshness, very much in keeping with the year.

The fruit is really ripe, botrytised, quite tight in character, the layers of tangerine and orange juice wedged into a dry core. This will need many years.

87-89 The wine tastes light, with a hard edged mineral character, the richness still a distance away.

92-94 Barrel sample. An impressive wine. It shows just the right balance of dry botrytis and sweet fruit, bringing a firm structure as well as ripe bitter orange marmalade flavors.

90-92 Barrel sample. Almond aromas, a wine that is dense, rich but also with a strong almond and nut character. It is certainly powerful, dense.

85-87 Barrel sample. Fresh lemon aromas entice, but the wine is heavily dominated by new wood. The spice from the wood allows only small amounts of peppermint and sweet fruit flavors show through.
