  A smooth, dense wine, ripe and polished. It brings out a modern view of Bordeaux, dark and concentrated, hinting at the new-wood aging. At the same time, the wine has a serious edge that promises proper aging.

  A ripely smooth, polished wine, the new wood a major constituent of its character. It has a severe structure, dark and concentrated, but the texture of the very ripe fruit is rounded, jammy, giving a more generous potential. Age for at least five years.

  Superrich, but it works because of its mouthwatering acidity. The white fruit flavors are verging on tropical, the spice and new wood are here, but finely judged. And then there is a delicious green, herbaceous finish, which makes the wine both rich and lively.
