Estimate
A rich, smooth, luxurious style. Ripe, supple and balanced, with a mix of black cherry, currant, wild berry and light cedary oak. The impressive finish gains velocity and depth and maintains its elegant structure.
Exhibits plenty of spicy oak, but it is dominated by sweet blackberry and cassis fruit intermixed with notions of charcoal, acacia flowers, and pain grille.
Grapey aromas of crushed cassis, blackberry and licorice. Dense, sweet and full; broadens out impressively toward the back half and saturates the palate with dark fruit flavors.
