Estimate
...broad and generous on the full-bodied palate, practically oozing generosity and richness. Plums, blackberries, vanilla and cedar all come together in a sexy whirl of velvety-textured hedonism...
...very attractively rich and ripe feel with a tarry overlay, fresh earth and violets, as well as mulberries, redcurrants, red plums and oak spice bubbling through. The palate has the trademark smooth, chocolate and ripe red plums, as well as some darker berry flavors. Good balance here.
Blackberry, kirsch and huckleberry flavors are concentrated and velvety, highlighted with herb, spice and cedar notes. Details of cigar box and date bread linger on the long, generous finish.
