Estimate
Has a Bordeaux-like (Saint-Julien?) bouquet of black currants, graphite, lead pencil and leafy herbs... ripe, full-bodied, and structured on the palate, with fine tannin, beautiful purity of fruit, a solid mid-palate, and a great finish.
Opens with a deep purple-black color and nose of black cherry compote, plum preserves and dried herbs with an earthy, savory undercurrent of yeast extract and meat. Big, full-bodied, concentrated and voluptuous
