Estimate
...expressive cassis, black plums and clove notes plus underlying garrigue, Marmite toast and baking spice hints. Medium to full-bodied and firmly constructed, it has a great backbone of ripe, grainy tannins and plenty of freshness cutting through the dense fruit, finishing with a spicy lift.
A dense and layered red with a velvety texture and a rich, juicy finish. Full body with vanilla, blackberries and some cappuccino...
... Rich red fruit plays around interlaced acidity as accents of dried herb, red currant and structured tannins define a juicy midpalate of delicious intrigue and weight...
... Raspberry jam, white chocolate, flowers, mint and sweet spice flesh out in a racy, opulent wine endowed with tremendous character and tons of near to medium-term appeal. A dollop of Petit Verdot adds darkness and structure to this very pretty and expressive Cabernet Sauvignon.
...offers serious richness in its blackcurrants, smoke earth, graphite, and lead pencil aromas and flavors. It has terrific mid-palate depth, a layered, ripe texture, and a great finish...
Solidly built, with muscular black currant, plum and boysenberry paste flavors, inlaid liberally with loam, tobacco and singed alder notes. Delivers more bass than treble, but this cruises through with confidence.
