Estimate
Robust in exotic spicy cardamom and wildflowers, this is from a site the producer considers its most marginal, and it retains a racy on-the-edge character that's hard to pinpoint. Pomegranate, rosemary, sage and clove all appear along a taut tight-grained texture seasoned in irresistible white pepper.
Dried herbs, tobacco, earth, game and incense give the Falstaff a decidedly masculine, brooding personality.
...very fine, powdery tannins but a slightly drying finish... Wet stones on the finish...
