Estimate
Intensely perfumed scents of ripe red and fruits, incense and Asian spices, along with a hint of smoky minerality that builds in the glass. Sweet, penetrating and lively on the palate, showing excellent clarity and spicy lift to the sappy cherry-vanilla, mulberry and floral pastille flavors. Deepens with air and finishes on a subtly tannic note, with sharp focus and a lingering spicecake quality.
Attractive, spicy aromas with dried roses and berries lead to a palate that has a smooth, supple and juicy feel with sweet, fleshy fruit and a fine frame of tannin that carries good length in elegant form.
