Rich and soft, drinking well now
overoaked with not a lot else going on
fresh, bright fruit with bold tannins, should age well
rich, savoury wine
(10/17/2015)
quite dense closed wine which needs a good few years in bottle
good potential but very young now
juicy fruit and toasty oak
bright and fresh, easy drinking
sweet fruit and oak, still needs time for tannins to soften, open perhaps 2017

strong cassis and definitely would have picked this wine as aged cabernet, short finish
fresh, light, drink me now
fresh herbs. tannic
rich, savoury and spicy
intense, tannic fruit bomb with a good future
very savoury with lots of tertiary aromas
classy wine with red fruit and savoury aromas
complex wine with dark fruit and smoky notes, young, but not yet worthy of its $90+ price tag, will improve with bottle age however
sweet fruit and vibrant acidity, long finish. more accessible than the 2010
a bit over-ripe
herbal
light, bright, refreshing fruity wine

nice toasty oak and quite forward dark fruits
bright, juicy, red fruits
fresh wine with ripe tannins
lots of savoury and tertiary notes
beautifully balanced, fragrant and delicate, but still has the structure to age magnificently. the best pn of the tasting. unfortunately wasn't served blind.
much less ripe that the regular label 2013, with nice stalky and mineral notes and a very fresh finish
pretty wine with outstanding texture and early savoury notes
as rich as the la maitre but more complex and interesting
quite savoury. tannic now, will improve over next few years
tart cherry
red fruit with high acid and tannin levels
full of fruit and toasty oak, will age nicely
cherry, fresh, drinking well now
less oaky than the regular label, pretty wine
intense nose with bright red fruit, more delicate on the palate
spicy and fruity, preferred over the lease block 2013
rich wine with dark fruits, quite soft in the mouth however ends chewy tannins, should develop into a nice wine
forward fruit in great balance, long
very ripe fruit
sweet fruit with tertiary flavours, great texture
incredibly fresh and juicy, drinking well now
funky nose, light and refreshing finish
sweet oak, less well balanced than the taylor
concentrated, fruity wine, drink now
