Estimate
This very structured but polished style... coffee and a large core of crushed fig, plum sauce & steeped black currant... dense... strong graphite & iron edge buried deeply on the finish... Lovely mineral, sanguine edge. Beautifully built.
...exuberant, flamboyant... plump, succulent & irresistible... toasty oak, vanillin, jammy black & red fruits... wood fire barbecue, roasted espresso & chocolate... fleshy, exotic, impressively endowed, full-bodied, silky smooth, opulent...
Wild nose melds aromas of dark berries, meat, leather, flowers, espresso and smoky oak. Plush, round and sweet, with dark fruit flavors complicated by salty minerality. Finishes with superb ripe tannins and noteworthy freshness.
