Vintage information 2009:

The reds: Concentration, drinkability and real depths are the hallmark of this vintage. The wines are ripe and despite their seemingly low acidity (analytically) the wines have a good balance. They will be very successful.
For Whites: Lovely wines are to be found; with energy yet a contemplative, mellow complexity - they can be beguiling. On the other hand there are also many (prior to bottling) that seem a little lumpen; concentration but without vitality. Just a little like some wines from 2005. Let us see... Dec.2010

The nose is very tight, but in the mouth the flavours are very round, complex and fine. Admittedly there’s plenty of oak-derived flavour too but it doesn’t make it any less engaging. Whilst a little tannin sticks to your gums, it is more of an afterthought.
