Estimate
It has a big, meaty, salty, spicy style to go with ample black cherry and darker fruits, full-bodied richness, terrific balance, and a great finish.
...scents of cassis with graphite, cast iron, aniseed, violet and soy sauce...full-bodied palate has a serious, minerally character with a pleasantly rustic touch of chew and a very long, spicy finish.
Black raspberry, cherry, licorice and a subtle vanilla nuance on the deep-pitched, smoke-tinged nose. Smooth and expansive on the palate, offering ripe cherry and red berry flavors that show fine definition and take on a spicy quality with air. Gently gripping tannins add shape to a very long, dark-fruit-dominated finish that leaves espresso and red berry notes behind.
