Estimate
Aromas of underbrush, leather, eucalyptus and dark-skinned fruit lead the nose. Elegant and savory, the focused palate offers sour cherry, cranberry, star anise and a hint of game before an almost salty finish. Taut, refined tannins and bright acidity keep it well balanced.
Open, expansive aromatics convey an impression of up-front appeal, but there is plenty of Serralunga power lurking beneath. Macerated cherry, spice, rose petal, menthol and underbrush fill out the layers effortlessly. This is seriously impressive, especially for the vintage. High-toned aromatics build into the finish.
