Estimate
Spicy and thick in rich, rewarding flavors of baked rhubarb and strawberry spiced by nutmeg, this bold red is also floral in rose petal. Velvety smooth and full bodied in style, it delivers concentrated complexity and undeniable appeal.
...darker core of fruit, showing notes of tart black cherries, cranberries, damp earth, leafy underbrush, and spring flowers. It's elegant, silky and seamless on the palate, with a beautiful tension and vibrancy in its texture, as well as a great finish.
...Bing cherries, tart cranberries, earth, wet leaves, woodsmoke and blackberries on the nose with a dusty streak. The palate is medium-bodied, silky and plushly fruited with addicting freshness and a gently grainy frame to support, finishing long.
Ripe plum, hard candy, mint and cola are nicely pushed forward...deftly balances Russian River fruitiness with the mid-weight style favored...
Attractive crushed-rose and wildflower perfume...bright red cherries and berries. The palate has supple, smooth and soft tannin, delivered in approachable mode and carrying fresh, bright red-berry flavors.
