Estimate
Contains some exotic fruit—blueberry paste, boysenberry and raspberry confiture, and pastis-soaked currant—but it’s a brick house too, with Turkish coffee, bittersweet chocolate and lots of singed wood spice notes fanning out on the finish
...Lush and open-knit but energetic, offering intense red and dark berry flavors and a sexy lavender pastille quality...This is the most elegant and lithe bottling of Boisrenard that I can recall, but it's by no means a lightweight.
...offers toasty new oak, a chocolaty, sweet black cherry jamminess, black currant, licorice and graphite characteristics...a top-flight wine that should drink well for 10-15 years.
Lustrous crimson. Floral, charming perfume. Very sweet and round and unusual. Like a bouquet of roses until almost the end when its heavy cloak of velvety tannins emerges. Very exciting wine though in blowsy rather than focused style.
