Estimate
...tar and graphite to black fruit, licorice, mint chocolate, cigar box and charcuterie on the nose...full-bodied palate offers concentrated, savory fruits, generous silty tannins and fireworks of fresh acidity, finishing with tremendous length and detail.
Cassis, kirsch, dark chocolate, vanilla and licorice on the profoundly perfumed nose, along with exotic floral and spice notes. Appealingly sweet black and blue fruit preserve and candied rose flavors are complemented by oak spice and vanilla nuances. Finishes smooth, broad and extremely long, with well-judged tannins framing reverberating dark fruit and spice notes.
...medium to full bodied richness, building tannins, good mid-palate depth, and more reserved notes of black fruits, chalky minerality, charcoal, and spice.
