Estimate
Powerful raspberry and cherry-cola scents are complemented by suggestions of mocha and candied flowers. Pliant and expansive on the palate, offering juicy red and blue fruit, spicecake and candied rose flavors that slowly firm up through the mid-palate. Possesses very good depth as well as energy and finishes impressively long and smooth, with fine-grained tannins framing lingering cherry and floral notes.
Black-raspberry and black-plum aromas meet with hints of carnation, dried meat and turned earth on the nose of this bottling. It's hearty in structure on the palate, wrapped in firm tannins that display flavors of boysenberry, cardamom and cola spice.
