A strongly spicy, rich wine, this has great concentration and an intense, dense texture.There is weight with plenty of ripe tropical fruits to contrast pronounced black pepper and bitter almond character. It's still young, so don't drink before 2015. Screwcap.

This is full bodied, ripe and creamy. It has flavors of tropical fruit, spiced pineapple and a touch of pepper. The underlying grapefruit acidity holds everything together. Screwcap.

A currant flavor pushes this wine to a rich, concentrated fruitiness. It is dry, although the superripe fruit gives an illusion of sweetness. The concentration and density of the fruit are impressive. Screwcap.

A rich wine, full of peach and pineapple flavors, with an herbal, spicy edge. It's full in the mouth, the texture oily and unctuous. At the end, the pepper character thrusts out of the glass.
