Estimate
...earthy nose of black soil, underbrush and truffles with a core of red cherries, black raspberries and black pepper. Medium-bodied with plenty of freshness and chewy in the mouth, it has a savory/earthy palate with a good amount of red berry and peppery layers, finishing with very good persistence.
... A complex, highly perfumed bouquet displays ripe dark berry and cherry scents, complicated by notes of peppery spices, smoked meat and incense. Urgent and focused on the palate, offering concentrated black raspberry, bitter cherry and floral pastille flavors and a strong suggestion of spicecake...closes with powerful thrust and silky tannins...
...perfectly ripened black-cherry fruit, a dash of cola, and an underpinning of clean earth, complemented with a touch of mineral. The finish is superb.
...pretty red and dark currant along with violet wisps...good vibrancy, volume and mid-palate density to the delicious, suave and rounded medium weight flavors that also brim with dry extract, all wrapped in a firm, serious and well-balanced finale that is sneaky long...
Vivid aromas of blueberries, spices and tar follow through to a medium body, firm and silky tannins and a chewy finish. Shows structure and class.
Firm in texture, with peppery tannins around a gush of raspberry and cherry flavors, gliding into a long and expressive, deftly balanced finish.
Rich and zesty. Transparent and floral... Great energy...
