Estimate
Clove, nutmeg and coffee aromas here, on top of dried mushrooms. Hints of balsamic and licorice...full-bodied with ripe, juicy tannins. Slightly mineral and black-tea finish.
Sleek and elegantly structured, this has aromas of menthol, forest floor, tobacco and citrus. Linear and bright, the polished palate features juicy red cherry, star anise and a salty mineral note framed in lithe tannins. Bright acidity keeps it vibrant.
...lifted aromatics of confected cherry licorice, crushed roses, and sweet herbs. The palate is medium bodied and approachable, with fresh raspberry, orange peel, and tea leaf. There are fine tannins, brisk acidity, and a moderate finish.
Lots of life and tang... Zesty. Transparent.
