...similar aromatically, with grilled plum, blue fruits, pepper, violets, and some classic La Landonne smoky meatiness as well as a beautifully textured, medium to full-bodied style on the palate...incredible tannins, and a great finish.
...features pungent notes of black olives, roasted meat and grilled plum. Full-bodied, rich and velvety, with a long, softly chewy finish, this has a real shot at greatness.
Assertively perfumed aromas of primary black/blue fruits, incense, exotic spices and candied flowers, plus a smoky mineral topnote that adds urgency. Deeply concentrated blackberry, bitter cherry and fruitcake flavors are supported by a spine of smoky minerality and pick up a suave violet candy quality with air.
