Estimate
Mushroom, smoke and spice with lots of blue fruits as well. Full body, round and velvety tannins and a flavorful finish. Big and rich wine with so much character yet lively and pretty.
Spicy pine and cardamom greet the nose and palate, as silky smooth layers of rose and wild strawberry meet cardamon and vanilla. Medium-bodied, it remains complex and balanced as it develops additional nuance in the glass.
...offers an earthy nose of underbrush, moss, dusty soil and truffles over notes of crushed Bing cherries and cranberries, plus a waft of bay leaves. Medium-bodied, elegant and fresh in the mouth, the red berry and earth flavors are well-supported by chewy tannins and give a nice long finish.
...red berry, briar and softly spiced nose...good energy and focus to the delicious and solidly concentrated middle weight flavors that are also shaped by notably firm tannins on the bitter cherry-inflected finale that displays better overall balance and length.
