Estimate
...Full-bodied, massively endowed 2017 has complex notes of blue fruits, blood orange, violets, and exotic spices...rich and concentrated yet has remarkable purity and elegance at the same time...
...Blackberry, blueberry, cola, exotic spices, vanilla and pungent flowers on the deeply perfumed, mineral-accented nose. Compellingly sweet, lush and broad in the mouth, showing hefty dark berry preserve, candied violet and fruitcake flavors that pick up mocha, vanilla and star anise nuances on the back half. Finishes extremely long and smooth, with velvety tannins, lingering florality and outstanding clarity...
Boldly expressive aromas of blackberry and dried cherry lead to densely structured river stone, dried sage and white pepper flavors that build tension toward broad-shouldered tannins...
