Estimate
...floral and blueberry characteristics are found in this intense, medium-bodied 2001 along with extraordinary elegance and palate presence.
Spicy, toasty, mocha-scented oak plays a strong role in this richly flavored wine, built around ripe plum, blueberry and wild berry flavors. Finishes with a sense of elegance and lift.
Sappy, fruit-driven aromas of blackberry, cassis and espresso, lifted by a violet element. Rich, supple and sweet, with lush but lively flavors of cassis and dark chocolate. Finishes with sweet, broad tannins and excellent length.
