Estimate
Black cherry, walnut, bark and wet earth on the nose. Some mushroom, too. Full-bodied with firm, velvety tannins that are energetic and polished at the same time. Plenty of character at the finish...
Expressive aromatics of lavender, fresh black raspberry, and sweet Mediterranean herbs...palate is ripe and inviting, with black cherry, cola, and baked earth. It is open and generous, with a round structure and soft, supple tannins.
...musky cherries dusted in shavings of cedar and pine, with hints of candied orange in the mix. It’s silky in feel with sweet red fruits and spices further accentuated by vibrant acids. Fine tannins come forward through the close; yet energy remains high, as this fruit-forward and seductive Brunello tapers off to hints of cinnamon and clove.
...aromas of scorched earth, new leather, mocha and ripe dark-skinned fruit. The bracing, firmly structured palate offers prune, roasted coffee bean and licorice alongside assertive tannins that grip the finish.
Garden herbs, minerally notes and brooding. Compact, pure and concentrated cherry fruit with bags of chewy tannins. Great length and bite.
