90–92. Barrel sample. This firmly tannic wine is solid and potentially quite complex. The structure is paramount, exhibiting substantial weight, while still hinting at the juicy fruity acidity on the finish.

92-94 Barrel sample. Firm, but ripe, very sweet Merlot coming through a core of tense acidity. This is chunky, foursquare, remaining fruity while also tannic.
