Estimate
...dense, creamy and seamless yet almost shockingly vibrant, with outstanding balance and an impression of firm acids...The mounting finish goes on and on. Great wine, perhaps monumental.
Seductive grace and purity followed by sweet, understated and vibrant medium full flavors...There is a serenity here that cannot be duplicated and must be experienced...
An enormously structured (verging on firm) effort, it offers cassis liqueur, spice, black cherry, and plum flavors. Its finish, marked by solid tannin, is impressively persistent.
Extraordinarily opulent, open nose. Very very rich and ripe and absolutely on the borderline of overripe flavours but hugely enjoyable. Slightly brûlée and lots of fine tannins underneath. Quite marked acidity too...
