Oh, I get it. You are only revealing the points of the answers revealed so far. I though Cabernet had been eliminated as had certain vintages because these guys only had 4 points.
Obviously now I will go with what Maxiumus and them said. , i.e. Wynns Harold 2001.

Well, I can't win due to already missing out on the earlier bits, but for a possible (but unlikely) 9 points, I guess Katnook Odyssey.
