Estimate
Deeply perfumed red and blue fruit, lavender and exotic spice qualities on the highly expressive nose, which is brightened by a smoky mineral overtone...sweet and incisive on the palate, offering juicy raspberry, cassis, cherry, violet pastille and spicecake flavors...lively in style, delivering firm closing thrust and velvety tannins on an impressively long, floral- and spice-driven finish.
...fresh blackberries, tar, Earl Grey tea leaves and tangerine peel with a bright hint of balsamic. The medium to full-bodied palate is very perfumed, concentrated and super fresh with a grainy frame and long, layered finish.
...beautiful bouquet of smoked black fruits, ground pepper, roasted meats, and bouquet garni-like aromas and flavors. It's beautifully textured, seamless, and elegant on the palate, with fine tannins and a great finish.
