Estimate
Loaded with rich, dark layers of black currant, black berry, truffle, tar, mocha and bittersweet cocoa, this pumps out both fruit and terroir on the grip-filled finish.
Offers notes of chocolate, cocoa, smoke, creme de cassis and black cherry liqueur. Some licorice also makes it into the picture. The wine is full-bodied, layered, with voluptuousness to the texture and expansive, broad, persistent finish.
...very ripe aromas of dark cherry, plum liqueur, black cardamom, bitter chocolate, espresso and exotic oak spices.
...great black, dark fruit flavors that match the tannins. Some new wood flavors give a polished edge to the wine. It is both powerful and elegant.
