Estimate
...palate has lacy yet strong tannin and a deep-set, flavorsome feel with such long, rich fruit presence, carrying deep on the finish.
...red fruit liqueur, potpourri, incense and smoky mineral scents are complemented by hints of mocha and exotic spices. Attractively sweet and lively on the palate... Polished tannins frame and shape a powerful, mineral-driven finish that lingers with outstanding persistence and alluring sweetness.
...smooth, even silky expression...touch of char around dense black-cherry fruit, with perfectly ripened and proportioned tannins.
...nose of clove, dried orange peel, potpourri, allspice, cured meats, dried herbs, peppercorn and forest floor with a core of blackberries, red currants and black cherries. Medium-bodied and silky, it offers intense, spiced fruits and amaro notions, knit by firm, grainy tannins and juicy acidity, finishing long.
