Estimate
Rich and explosive, the 2019 possesses tremendous density and plenty of mountain power. A rush of black cherry, blackberry, licorice, spice and menthol builds into the huge finish.
Lead pencil and dark fruit with wet earth. Purple fruit, too. Full-bodied with velvety tannins. Solid as a rock and gorgeous. Black olives at the end. Big and attractive.
It's ripe and rich, with plenty of cassis, hints of cinnamon and cedar and nuances of bay leaf on the nose. Full-bodied and velvety, it's remarkably easy to drink, finishing mouthwatering and long.
Gorgeous crème de cassis, plums, graphite, crushed stone and tobacco...rich, medium to full-bodied, concentrated, dense, and incredibly impressive 2019 from this estate.
