Estimate
...gorgeous, firm wine endowed with candied dark fruit, leather and licorice...final burst of black fruit frames the finish.
...aromas of blackberries, raspberries, grilled meats, underbrush, and violet like nuances... Medium to full-bodied on the palate, with a rich, fleshy texture, yet firm and substantial underlying tannin and acid... Beautifully done and a solid mix of fruit and structure.
Very complete and seductive, this starts with juicy flavors of red berry and blackberry, with red and black licorice notes, before firming and turning tannic. Finishes with a minerally road tar edge.
This is a big and velvety wine with lots of fruit and a spicy undertone. Full and juicy with soft tannins and a fruity finish. Subtle and delicious.
