Estimate
A complex array of pit fruit distillates, herbal essences, and nut oils captures the imagination through aromas...its palate performance follows in kind with a lithe, brightly juicy, piquant and tart-edged evocation of fresh dark fruits and its persistent aura of fruit and herb distillates...finishes with striking cut, vivacity and penetration...
Supple, with a veil of firm tannins around juicy red berry and spice flavors, picking up a touch of wet slate as the finish persists.
... Musky cherry pit and blackberry scents are complemented by notes of succulent herbs and rose oil. Ripe but energetic on the palate, offering chewy, smoke- and spice-accented dark fruit flavors and a hint of licorice. Shows a touch of tangy citrus pith on a persistent finish that leaves notes of bitter cherry and spicecake behind.
