Estimate
Mingling aromas of blackberries and raspberries with notions of exotic spices, orange rind, smoked duck and forest floor...full-bodied, rich and concentrated, with broad structural shoulders supplied by ripe, powdery tannins. Layered and muscular...remarkably seamless and integrated...concluding with a long, sapid finish.
...blackberry and raspberry, wild hedgerow and touches of bay leaf. Beautiful definition. The palate is medium-bodied with lace-like tannins, a beguiling sense of symmetry and poise... It fans out wonderfully towards the finish, velvety smooth with a judicious touch of spice lingering on the aftertaste.
...communicative and nuanced... High-toned with a suggestion of ripe elderberries. Beautifully textured with crisp crunchy fruit distracting from an impressive charge of tannins. Real crunch on the end...impressive length. Lovely balance and intrigue. Peacock’s tail of unfurling ripe treasures on the end.
