Estimate
Blue flower, underbrush, camphor and hazelnut aromas come to the forefront. Full-bodied and elegantly structured, the palate offers ripe raspberry, Morello cherry, tobacco and a hint of coffee bean alongside firm, close-grained tannins.
Smells like sliced strawberries with lemons and some fresh flowers. Medium-to full-bodied with chewy tannins that are focused and lightly angular. Walnut and stone undertones.
...offers a fleeting moment of ripeness, with summer cherry and raspberry...less fruit weight on the finish, but the wine marches forward...
Ripe red cherry, kirsch, dried flowers, orange peel and cinnamon...especially ripe, forward Barolo, but it also has a bit better balance in its tannins.
...displays cherry, plum, eucalyptus and iron flavors on a lean frame. Tannins are assertive, yet not overly astringent and the finish lingers nicely.
Brooding cherry fruit with notes of tea leaves. Succulent cherry palate with lots of polished tannins. Suave and generous with hints of gingerbread on the finish.
