Estimate
Delivers ample flesh at the core, offering plum cake, currant preserves and smoldering tobacco leaf notes, offset by a tangy hint of anise. Should settle in well enough after modest cellaring.
A sleek, refined wine with blueberry, mineral and dried-flower character. Medium to full body with firm tannins. Bright and racy.
Sexy aromas of raspberry preserves, cola, incense and violet. Palate-staining red and dark fruit flavors show very good depth, with tangy acidity providing lift. Silky tannins add shape and grip to the very pure, long finish...
Bright, lifted dark-fruit aroma. Blackcurrant pastilles. Very firm, compact tannins. All furled up on the palate. But the texture is like melted chocolate. Lots in there. Long too.
