Estimate
...notes of toasty new oak, mineral, scorched earth, espresso, blueberry, and blackberry can be discerned. The wine has great balance, sweet fruit, and poise. It is a true tour de force.
Suave, mineral-accented raspberry and cherry-cola aromas slowly unfold to display anise, graphite, smoky bacon and roasted coffee. Deeply concentrated but improbably elegant, with lively red and dark fruit favors supported by silky tannins.
Structured but tannins already starting to melt. Cool and fresh and then the power of the thick chocolate tannins kicks in on the powerful finish.
