Estimate
High-pitched red and dark berry scents display excellent clarity... Juicy and focused on the palate; intense, appealingly sweet cherry, black raspberry and spicecake flavors... Finishes with impressive energy and cut, delivering dusty, late-arriving tannins and lingering spiciness.
An elegantly integrated dark-red-cherry component distinguishes the nose...with hints of sagebrush and baking spice...palate combines dark-berry flavors with dried herbs, graphite and light sarsaparilla, with well-integrated acidity and a silky yet firm texture.
...lots of minerality and hints of salinity, with ripe black raspberries, currants, pepper and olive aromas and flavors, it has medium to full-bodied richness, good acidity and ripe tannin.
...opens with fragrant dried roses, Ceylon tea and tobacco leaf notes over a core of black cherries, anise and black earth, plus a touch of underbrush. Medium to full-bodied with a firm frame of chewy tannins and lively acid, it offers a solid, muscular core of earthy flavors and a long finish with some pepper notes coming through.
Densely built but zesty, with dried cherry and smoky beef aromas and a firm backbone of dark plum, cracked pepper and tar notes, finishing with snappy tannins.
Quite rich and polished. Satin-smooth and scented with a beginning, middle and end. Real grip on the finish. Convincingly expressive of Roussanne. Lots to chew on.
