Estimate
...subtle hints of smoke and crushed stone on the nose alongside scents of dark plums and black cherries...firm and full-bodied, with the ripe tannins and concentrated fruit...long, intense finish that adds hints of star anise and cracked pepper.
Gently mulled loganberry, plum and black currant fruit flavors form the core, with dark tea, tobacco and alder notes filling in on the finish and echoing nicely.
...aromas of ripe red/blue fruits, exotic spices and incense, along with a smoky mineral nuance... Smooth and seamless in texture, offering palate-staining raspberry and cherry pie, spicecake and lavender pastille flavors that convey a suave blend of power and finesse. Finishes sweet, gently tannic and extremely long, leaving behind exotic star anise and floral notes.
...black fruits, spice, licorice, and hints of meatiness, this beauty hits the palate with full-bodied richness, stunning purity of fruit, and fine yet present tannins.
Raspberry, redcurrant, fairly simple in flavour range but with good purity and definition. Moderate length and neatly tucked-in tannins.
