Estimate
...loads of savory red and black fruits, crushed violets, cured meats, and peppery herb-like aromas and flavors, with a beautiful underpinning of iron and rocking minerality. Medium to full-bodied and beautifully balanced on the palate, with present yet ripe tannins...
…opens with a smoky and stemmy nose of bacon fat, black pepper, dusty plum blossom, spicy cherry compote and black raspberry skin tossed in smoked herbs. Medium to full-bodied…reveals a firm mineral tension and drying tannins…ends with a firm tannic grip that lingers with a spicy and stemmy expression.
...jammed with personality, yet remains refined, with deep black olive, smoked meat, river stone and floral blueberry flavors that build tension toward fine-grained tannins.
Complex, inviting scents of red and black fruits, violet, black pepper, mulch, smoked meat and olive tapenade. Concentrated and quite balsamic, conveying a distinct peppery dryness to its flavors of dark berries, spices and violet…shows very good persistence.
