Estimate
Sweet lively red cherries and raspberries...medium to full-bodied...satin-textured effort bursts with cassis liqueur and candied blackberries. Pure, highly expressive, rich, well-structured, and deep, it also vaunts an extremely long finish.
Complex, sappy aromas of cherry, minerals, crushed stone, smoke and menthol... Suave on entry, then intense in the middle, with enticing restrained sweetness to the slightly medicinal black cherry and crushed rock flavors... Finishes with firm tannic spine.
Slightly spicy on the nose but then sweeter red fruit on the palate. Fresh, quite soft tannins. Aromatic and seductive.
