Estimate
...Crème de cassis, graphite, ground herbs, and hints of tobacco all flow to a medium to full-bodied red that has terrific purity of fruit, ripe tannins, and a great finish...
...Sexy spicy oak overlays polished scents of dark berries, black cherry, graphite and licorice. Savory, fine-grained and laid-back; the most complex of these Bordeaux-blend wines, with sexy Cabernet Franc herbal lift and a touch of chocolatey Merlot adding interest to the dark berry and mineral flavors...
Focused and tightly built, with expressive blackberry, cedar and smoky mocha flavors that build toward big but refined tannins...
