Estimate
Nuanced, finessed and impeccably balanced...gorgeous sense of restraint, all in a medium-bodied style that is immensely appealing. Ripe red cherry, plum, rose petal, mint and wild flowers are some of the many aromas and flavors that develop...
The bouquet is complex and dark with rich black fruit, tar, smoke and spice. The mouthfeel is equally rich and enduring.
Ripe, deep and intense, this red evokes raspberry, blackberry, plum, sweet spice and violet aromas and flavors. Smooth, with good structure and a long, fruit- and spice-filled aftertaste.
Ripe black-skinned fruit, blue flower, crushed mint and cake spice aromas take center stage, while a balsamic note stays in the background. It's big, juicy and incredibly delicious, as it doles out mouthfuls of ripe plum, succulent blackberry, Marasca cherry and vanilla alongside soft, polished tannins. A star anise note lingers on the close.
Pure and juicy on the palate with wonderfully tingly acidity on the palate. Excellent clarity to the black cherry fruit here. Drying but not abrasive on the finish.
