Estimate
...incredible power and drive with blackberry, black olive and graphite. It’s full-bodied, yet dynamic and agile, with so much polished and muscular tannin. Yet, it remains in harmony and balance. So much character...diabolical beauty.
Full-bodied, concentrated, and powerful, it nevertheless cuts a focused, precise path across the palate and brings incredible purity in its darker fruits, smoked tobacco, cedar pencil, and Asian spice-driven aromas and flavors. The tannin quality here is off the charts, and this beauty has everything you could want from wine.
Rich in texture...clear layers and complexity... This has a precision and a clarity to the aromatics, and a gentle buzz of minerality that gives a physical reaction in the mouth.
...black fruit, cedar and tobacco aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins—a well-knit and harmonious Pessac with a precise, understated finish.
...attractive aromas of cassis, sweet berries, loamy soil, violets and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, it's a concentrated, rather broad-shouldered wine built around a chassis of firm, powdery tannin that asserts itself on the finish.
...touch oaky/charry and dark...red fruits hiding underneath...finely built tannins. Firm, juicy and refined with lots of lovely dark fruit...
