Estimate
...exquisite... ...elegance and finesse... ...full-bodied mouthfeel (though very light and delicate on its feet), and incredible length... ...starting to drink well, and should continue to do so for at least another three decades...(6/2015)
A very complex, full-bodied red, with seamless, hyperpolished tannins that caress every millimeter of the palate.
This is a wine that makes you dream. The nose is packed with flowers, sweet tobacco, iodine, spices, raspberries, blackberries, and great freshness. The texture is perfection, pure silk and the fruit is wonderfully complex and subtle.
...extraordinary ripeness without fatness. Bravissimo! What delicacy with power...
Wonderfully expressive nose combines black raspberry, mocha, hot stones, caramel and tobacco. Lush, fat and full but with terrific definition...
