Estimate
Red stone fruits, plums, menthol, rose petals and spices...shows lovely balance and terrific overall depth in a pliant, mid-weight style...
...earthy bouquet, just a little stemmy but nicely defined with brambly red fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins and plenty of tertiary fruit, foursquare and a little austere on the saline, angular finish that does improve in the glass.
Good full medium red. Expressive nose melds redcurrant, mocha, rust, minerals and flowers... Sweet, smoky and nicely concentrated, with a musky quality to the complex flavors of redcurrant, smoky minerality, mocha and game. Finishes with supple tannins and excellent length.
