93–95. Barrel sample. Comprised of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, this is a densely ripe wine, full of black fruits, smoky wood and generous tannins. Given its structure, the wine will obviously age well, even if it is drinkable in the medium term.

93-95. Barrel sample. Big tannins, smoky wood notes and prominent fruit mark this wine, along with acidity and freshness. It's powerful, with the most gentle structure of concentrated dusty tannins and intensely-fresh blackberry-juice flavors.
