Estimate
...deeply textured, rich and succulent rendition of Sangiovese...tarry notes of toasted spice, licorice and Spanish cedar.
Baked plum, new leather, sunbaked earth, wild herb and tobacco aromas form the nose along with a balsamic whiff of camphor. The tense, structured palate delivers dried cherry, cinnamon, crushed mint and licorice framed in firm fine-grained tannins.
Dusty cherry and leather are complemented by cedar spice box and sage...silky-smooth and smoky, with dark mineral-tinged red berries and sour citrus tones cascading across the palate. Grippy tannins linger long...
Aromas of bright red cherries and plums sit neat and pure. This has quite dense and neatly polished texture with a wealth of ripe red and black cherries pervading the finish. The tannins roll out seamlessly.
Lots of concentrated fruit that is a little singed on the nose. Supple and a little rich.
