Estimate
...preserved plums, baked cherries, wilted roses and star anise notes plus hints of bacon fat, black pepper and fragrant earth plus a waft of tar...palate is full-bodied, big, rich and concentrated with loads of perfumed black fruit and rounded tannins to support, finishing long and peppery.
Velvety baked cherry and blackberry fruit... Touches of vanilla, brioche and underlying acidity complement the undying richness.
...offers a more masculine style in its asphalt, licorice, dark chocolate, and black fruits. It's rich, meaty, and powerful on the palate, with medium to full body and present yet ripe tannins.
