Sophia Craggy Range 2009 Gimblett Gravels Vineyard, Hawkes Bay

Black doris plum, blackcurrant, dried rosemary, cocoa dust and a hint of vanilla vie for attention. Brooding and ripe. The palate is layered with fine dusty tannins providing the structure for the ample flavour and length. Exceptional balance between fruit richness, tannic backbone and acidity is immaculate.

L'Aventure Estate Cuvée 2007 Paso Robles

Fullbodied with abundant notes of creme de cassis, blackberries, smoke, graphite, and charcoal, this dense, layered, beautifully textured effort will benefit from another 1-2 years of bottle age, and should drink well for 10-15+ years. 95 points. Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate.

Château Léoville-Poyferré 2006 St-Julien, 2ème Grand Cru Classé

Dense ruby/purple, with sweet blackberry and black currant fruit with hints of smoke, espresso roast, and new saddle leather, this is another impressively endowed but tannic, backward style of wine. 91 points. Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate.

Château Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 2002 Pauillac, 2ème Cru Classé

One of the undoubted megastars of Bordeaux, this vintage is full-bodied and dense to boot. A big wine now, it will develop for many years in bottle.

Les Forts de Latour 2005 Pauillac

The 2005 Forts de Latour (10,000 cases produced) possesses much of the same character as Latour, but sweeter tannins, more obvious and forward fruit, medium to full body, and a more seductive, plusher style, but not the great stature, richness, and architectural precision of its bigger brother. 92 points. Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate.
