Estimate
Spice-accented blueberry, cherry, peony, olive paste and a hint of cracked pepper on the highly fragrant nose. Appealingly sweet and energetic in style, showing very good depth and clarity to the juicy, smoke- and spice-tinged black and blue fruit and floral pastille flavors. Shows excellent clarity and bright, spicy lift on the subtly tannic finish, which leaves a hint of violet pastille behind.
A rich and deeply ripe expression with a wealth of very juicy pears and peaches and a smooth delivery of ripe, spiced-pear flesh on the palate. This has attractive weight and depth.
...offers a pure, rounded, sexy style... Pure dark fruits, ground pepper, and violets notes all give way to a medium to full-bodied, polished wine...
...asphalt, black olive, black pepper and blackberries. Medium to full-bodied, it boasts silky tannins but also a certain amount of muscle and intensity under that soft exterior.
Plush and modern with excellent blackberry fruit. Medicinal character with fine, dusty tannins, light body and a delicate, refreshed brightness on the finish.
