Fifth Leg White Blend 2006 – Grassy and lemon driven nose. Palate is also grassy with a crisp finish. Not bad. 85/100
Fifth Leg Chardonnay 2006 – A light but clean nose. Palate is a contrast with some bold and round, rich flavours. Seems indecisive about what it wants to be. 84/100
Fifth Leg Rose 2006 – Cherries and strawberry. Palate is delicate and light. Fine for what it is. 84/100
Fifth Leg Red Blend 2005 – Spice and blackberries. Palate is a quite sweet and round. Didn’t find this easy to taste. 82/100
Chardonnay 2005 – A restrained nose and palate. Nicely handled oak. Length and depth of the palate are both good. Would like to see it with a couple of years of bottle age. 89/100
Cabernet Blend 2002 – Have tasted this three times now, didn’t like it the first time but the second seemed better. This bottle was along the lines of the second. Tobacco, blackcurrant and briary aromas. Palate is well integrated. Hopefully will continue to improve. 88/100
