Estimate
...open-knit...velvety tannins, ripe cherry fruit and sweet tobacco.
...bright, detailed and graceful red, boasting strawberry, cherry, floral and earth flavors. There are dense tannins for support, and this shows fine balance and a persistent aftertaste.
...opens with subtle orange peel, spices, dried herbs and sour cherries. The medium- to full- bodied palate has a polished, sinewy tannin structure, compact fruit and vivid freshness. Tense in the finish with feathery tannins.
...elegant with aromas of dusty earth, dried red berries, tea leaf, and dried orange. Medium-bodied, it has a very pretty and weightless feel, with a lot of finesse, fine tannins, and a clean feel throughout. A lovely Riserva with a graceful feel...
...dark and rich in the glass, featuring notes of cherry and plum sauce, wild herbs, hints of smoke and camphor. This is silky smooth, nearly weighty in feel, mixing tart blackberries and wild strawberries over a core of saline minerals. It leaves an earthy resonance along with steely mineral tones and edgy tannins under an air of violet inner florals.
...little perfumed on the nose and with stalky hints. Sappy raspberry fruit that closes up fast with gripping grainy tannins taking over.
