Estimate
...layered aromas of cranberry sauce, Earl Grey tea leaves, bitters and foresty undertones, and it becomes more floral as it airs in the glass. The palate derives power from its sheer concentration of pure, expressive, spicy fruit. It’s structured by powdery tannins, and its tremendously juicy, mouthwatering acidity lures you back again and again for another sip.
...powerful, deep wine. A blast of dark red/purplish fruit, wildflowers, gravel, orange peel, mint, sage and tobacco all open with some reluctance... The taut, vibrant finish is salivating, but there is plenty of breadth on the back end waiting to emerge.
...blackberries, black cherries, plums, with a hint of salty blood orange and citrus pith...subtle herbal note and tea leaves hit the mid-palate, adding freshness and depth.
