Estimate
Shows intensity and balanced and beautiful fruit. Medium-to full-bodied, silky and beautiful. A really velvety and round texture to this.
...nose of garrigue, bay leaves and underbrush over a core of Bing cherries and cranberries. Medium-bodied...chewy tannins and a racy backbone, it has a lovely earthy/herbal lift in the mouth, continuing long into the finish.
Broad and expressive, with cherry and pomegranate flavors, picking up pear and floral notes as the finish lingers against grippy tannins.
Pungent aromas of cherry cola, blackberry and woodsmoke are lifted by lively floral and peppery spice qualities...lively on the palate, offering juicy dark berry and bitter cherry flavors and smooth, velvety texture...very good clarity and thrust on the long, spice-tinged, gently tannic finish.
Bold streaks of leafy green notes alongside wonderfully sweet red fruit with long, bold persistence and juiciness.
