Estimate
Savory herbs, licorice, spices and dark red fruit are all very much alive in the glass. The flavors are rich, beautifully layered and voluptuous in a wine that impresses for its balance and class.
...Musky aromas of raspberry, flinty minerality, rose petal and sexy oak, plus a suggestion of maple syrup. Sweet, silky and plush, offering a captivating blend of red fruits, flowers and smoky minerality. Utterly seamless Charmes with a sweetly tannic finish...
Black cherry and blackberry fruit is supported by dense tannins. Overall, this is charming and harmonious, with baking spice and black pepper accents. Excellent finish...
...ripe redcurrant and cranberry-scented bouquet that is full and voluminous. The palate is ripe and sweet with a candied core of strawberry fruit and a long succulent finish.
...supple, round and almost soft though there is good size, weight and yet again, a sense of refinement to the middle weight plus flavors that exhibit a discreet minerality on the balanced and persistent finish...
