Estimate
...great wine with fabulous transparency and clarity showing blackberry, blueberry and floral character. Full body, ultra-fine tannins and a superb finish.
...smoky, toasty and spicy notes over the core of violets, cherries and just a tiny herbal twist...palate shows some abundant fine-grained tannins...
Blackberry, bitter chocolate and violet aromas... Sweet, spicy and fine-grained, with cassis and blackberry fruit flavors complicated by spices, smoky oak and dusty herbs. A very complex blend...lovely fruit- and spice-driven sweetness... Finishes with firm, very fine-grained tannins, a suggestion of licorice and excellent length.
Dark, refined on the nose, subtle and elegant... Great fruit intensity and purity on the palate... Some blueberry sweetness from the Malbec and greater freshness from the Cabernet Franc. Chalky texture, almost a creamy depth but there’s a grain to it. Juicy...
