Estimate
Deep, spicy and fragrant...very concentrated and elegant...with remarkably fine tannins and floral delicacy alongside its earthy primacy.
Highly perfumed raspberry and cherry liqueur, exotic spice, incense and potpourri aromas are complicated by hints of musky herbs and smoky minerals. Juicy, seamless and energetic on the palate, offering pliant red berry, cherry cola, allspice and lavender flavors that show superb definition and back-end lift. Polished, even tannins lend grip to a strikingly long, penetrating finish that echoes the floral and mineral notes.
...red and black fruits, peppery herbs, earth, and flowery incense, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness and has ripe tannins, wonderful balance, and a great finish.
...intricate herbal nuances and scents of cranberries on the nose...the fruit is more cherry-like on the palate...the long finish is reassuringly supple and silky.
Textbook, featuring a mix of kirsch and raspberry notes infused with red tea and incense hints, all backed by a garrigue note on the juicy finish.
