Estimate
Brooding aromas of black cherry, licorice, menthol, minerals and dark chocolate. Densely packed, fine-grained and subtly sweet, conveying an element of medicinal reserve to its flavors of redcurrant, mocha and spices... Finishes firm and long, with substantial dusty tannins and an element of saline minerality.
...opens with a red and black-fruited essence on the nose, with a focused mineral core and clean, complex, dark berry-laced aromas with subtle wafts of dried herbs. Medium to full-bodied, the wine begins with soft oak spice flavors of vanilla and cinnamon that flutter across the mid-palate, then lingers, delivering pleasure on the precise and complex finish.
