Estimate
The voluptuous nose introduces a riot of blue and purple fruit flavors—a comingling of berries and plums. Streaks of fresh herb, mocha and cacao enter gracefully, leading onto the rich, deep and lusciously long finish.
Aromas of black raspberry, dark chocolate, licorice and gunflint. Silky on entry, then minerally and firm, showing a copacetic balance of fruit and juicy acidity. Finishes with good mineral lift and fairly fine-grained tannins.
Supple, generous and refined, with lovely red berry and black cherry fruit shaded with hints of clove and espresso. Lingers on the harmonious finish.
