Estimate
...gorgeous aromatics... Savory herbs, graphite, tobacco, menthol and new leather add complexity as the 2012 opens up in the glass.
...rich with tomato, cinnamon, sour cherry and tart blackberry aromas...soft and velvety once sipped, with cranberry juice flavors and cola making for a fun yet approachable Pinot Noir, easy to drink but able to trigger deep thoughts as well.
...darker, earthier style, with notions of Bing cherries, mint, white pepper and spring flowers, it hits the palate with medium-bodied richness, juicy acidity and a clean finish.
...openly fruity and highly expressive nose features plenty of menthol character along with ripe red currant, cranberry and raspberry aromas that are trimmed in subtle spice nuances...good volume and solid concentration to the very rounded and succulent flavors that possess an attractively textured, delicious and complex finish that really coats the mouth.
