90 Points Wine Advocate
There are 20,000 cases of the 2002 Solanera, a formidably endowed, chunky, rich, chocolaty, melted licorice, blackberry and black currant-scented wine. A deep ruby/purple color is followed by a medium to full-bodied red with loads of texture, and a luscious mid-palate revealing notions of scorched earth and black fruits. It is a sizeable effort with extremely ripe tannin, something only old vine, late harvested Mourvedre can achieve. It is a custom cuvee created only for the American marketplace, so bottles sold in Europe and in the grey market will be completely different. Enjoy it over the next 2-3 years, although my instincts suggest it will last longer.

Bordeaux Futures is an excellent way to order top quality Bordeaux wine before it is released to the general market. Often this is the only way to obtain highly sought-after, extremely limited quantity wines from the producers.
