Aged 18 months in older wood barrels, this wine is bold and rich, while also stylish and balanced.The firm layer of tannins comes from the smoky wood aging as well as from the rich fruits. Concentrated and firm at this stage, the wine needs time. Drink from 2019.

This beautifully perfumed wine is ripe, structured and well on the way to being delicious. Tannins and spice flavors have melded into rich black-cherry fruits cut with acidity. The wine could age for another few months, so drink from 2018.

Boldly tannic, this structured, wood-aged wine is just starting out. It's as much dry wood and tannins as fruit at this stage, although the fruit and mineral texture do promise aging. There is significant acidity at the end. Drink from 2016.

A perfumed wine, it has structured black fruits and a solid texture. It is rich, showing complexity through its tannins along with acidity and fruitiness. Still surprisingly young to taste, it should not be drunk until 2015.
