Estimate
...creamy-textured waves of plum paste, boysenberry preserves and warmed kirsch, all inlaid with fresh violet, anise and black tea notes. There's serious heft and drive on the finish, with tarry-edged tannins driving through and a late flurry of sweet bay leaf and apple wood notes that add even more range and detail.
...expressive black cherries, warm blackberries and chocolate-covered cherries notes with hints of pencil shavings, charcuterie and black olives...palate is full-bodied and firm with ripe, grainy tannins...finishing long and earthy.
Black fruit, gravel, dried herbs, lavender and incense give this dark, brooding powerhouse tons of character.
