Estimate
...seductive Margaux with an intense nose of black fruit and red plums. Some herb and wood notes, too. It’s full-bodied with pretty, pure-berry flavors with some crushed stones and cement...texture is silky and fine-grained and the tannins melt into the wine. Precise, flavorful finish with length.
...scents of baked blackberries, Morello cherries and boysenberries with hints of blackcurrant cordial, dark chocolate, licorice and tilled soil...medium to full-bodied palate has impressive intensity without heaviness, delivering mouth-coating black fruits and a firm, grainy texture, finishing with a refreshing earthy lift.
Lovely, with gently mulled plum, blackberry and black currant fruit sailing through atop a velvety structure while mouthwatering bay, black tea and iron notes flow underneath. Seductive, detailed finish lets a sanguine note echo longest. Gorgeous wine.
...deeply hued beauty boasts smoking good notes of blackcurrants, smoked tobacco, chocolate, and spice. Full-bodied and impressively concentrated, it has a stacked mid-palate, ripe, sweet yet certainly present tannins, a terrific sense of freshness, and a great finish.
...very attractive bouquet of detailed scents of red currant, wild strawberry, wilted rose petals and crushed stone...palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins matched with a fine bead of acidity.
...rich, generous wine...tannins are open and broad, giving power to the black currant flavor and fine acidity.
Fragrant. Fresh and lifted with real energy. And some delicacy and sophistication.
