Estimate
...aromas of ripe red berries, red cherry, marzipan and strawberry jelly, nicely complicated by a fresh violet note. Bright and vibrant on the palate, with suave red fruit flavors lifted by harmonious acidity, which provides wonderful clarity and cut and extends the flavors at the back...extremely long finish features noteworthy minerality and precision.
...standout expression with long and polished notes of dried fruit and tobacco presented in a smooth and seamless fashion...good structure and balance but an even prettier nose with ethereal balsam herbs, tar, licorice and pressed violets that emerge as the wine evolves in the glass.
Brooding sweet dried-fruit nose. Sweetly concentrated fruit with dry tannic grip.
