Estimate
...complex notes of bay leaf, red plums, candied violets, cedarwood and ground pepper...ripe, full-bodied beauty has loads of fruit, a solid spine of acidity, and a great finish. It's one of those wines that has cool-climate-like aromatics yet still offers loads of opulence on the palate.
Refined and handsomely made, with expressive black cherry and blueberry flavors, accented by grilled herb and licorice notes, taking on richness toward polished tannins.
...powerful, dense and wonderfully inviting. Crème de cassis, purplish plum, mint and wild flowers meld together in an inky, plush Syrah loaded with character.
Deep and dark aromas of black plum and nose-tickling tones of violet and lavender arise on the entry to this wine. Aggressive flavors of boysenberry and lavender meet with a strong peppery spice, and the structure is quite taut.
