Estimate
Wild berry, menthol and tilled earth aromas mingle with whiffs of dark spice. Linear and savory, the lithe palate is already immediate, featuring juicy raspberry, red cherry, crushed mint and star anise accompanied by taut, polished tannins. Tangy acidity keeps it fresh and bright.
The wine reveals wild berry, cassis and lots of blue flower or lilac. A pretty mineral note recalls crushed limestone and is present through the long and polished mouthfeel.
...bright aromatics of candied raspberry, apricot, anise, and dusty earth. The palate is medium-bodied, with fine tannins and notes of dried wild strawberry, fresh roses, and mineral-rich earth.
...pretty, supple and inviting... Crushed flowers, sweet red berry fruit, mint, crushed rocks and sage are some of the many notes that linger.
Sweet-strawberry, flower, iodine and stone aromas follow through to a full body with firm, polished tannins that show finesse and form.
Aromatic, this evokes hay, cherry, currant and loam aromas and flavors. Wild herbs and tobacco accents seep in on the finish.
=Hints of autumn undergrowth. Lifted and decidedly leafy. Rich palate entry with a hint of mint. Real depth and a note of violet cachous too. Juicy mid palate on the way to a dry, almost drying finish.
