Estimate
Extremely complex aromas of iodine, dark fruit, oyster shell, forest floor and blackberries follow through to a full body. Great intensity and integrity.
... ripe, sexy wine that has a huge nose of crème de cassis, blueberry liqueur, crushed rocks, and liquid violet characteristics as well as obvious minerality and earth. Deep, full-bodied, and incredibly powerful on the palate...
Aromatically broad and expansive, with tremendous depth, the Lotus is simply magnificent...Sweet tobacco, spice, cedar, sweet red cherry and mint..., I am blown away by the wine's textural resonance, volume and extraordinary balance.
Primary black and blue fruit nose of warm plums, blueberries and black cherries plus hints of spice box and pencil shavings. Full-bodied, rich, concentrated and firmly structured with ripe, grainy tannins, it has bags of depth
