Estimate
Dried strawberries and cherries with some bark and pine-needle notes. Black tea leaf and lavender... Full-bodied with chewy tannins, but they are fine grained and very pretty. Lots of black pepper.
...expressive, floral and open, beautifully textured with the granite fingerprint. Beautiful.
Expansive red fruit liqueur, cherry pie, licorice and potpourri aromas are complemented by exotic spice and smoky mineral flourishes. Broad and fleshy on the palate, offering deeply concentrated raspberry, boysenberry and bitter cherry flavors, along with a sweetening cola nuance. Slowly firms up with air and finishes with outstanding clarity, even tannins and excellent, mineral-driven persistence.
