Estimate
Enticing aromas of red berry, baking spice, crushed rose and chopped mint waft out of the glass. It's all about intensity, complexity and elegance, delivering mature Marasca cherry, orange zest, licorice and tobacco before closing on a note of smoky flint. Taut but refined tannins provide support while fresh acidity lends perfect balance.
...sweet note of cherry and bright fruit that is so perfectly in line with the richness and succulence of this warm and sunny vintage...captured every last sunbeam here, transmitting red fruit, cured tobacco, grilled herb and scorched earth in return.
...very pretty, aromatic wine laced with the essence of crushed rose petal, spice, red berry, mint and dried herbs.
