...incredible purity, finesse, and elegant paired with awesome depth and structure...a powerful bouquet of crème de cassis, blackberries, dried violets, graphite, and crushed rocks, with a liquid mineral component... Full-bodied and massively concentrated on the palate, yet with laser-like precision and clarity...
This delivers a broad swath of gently mulled blackberry, plum and boysenberry fruit flavors, inlaid deeply and seamlessly with anise, roasted apple wood, graphite and black tea notes. A mouthwatering mineral edge harnesses everything, adding refinement and cut. The extremely long finish has a wonderful sense of fine detail.
Mineral-accented dark berries, star anise, cola, olive and pungent flowers on the explosively perfumed nose. Offers impressively concentrated, expansive flavors of black raspberry, spicecake, smoked meat and candied flowers that are complicated by licorice candy and dark chocolate notes... Sweet, sappy and precise on the floral- and dark fruit-driven finish, which shows outstanding clarity and round, harmonious tannins that build smoothly and steadily.
...medium to full-bodied richness, beautiful mid-palate density and building tannin, all with the freshness and purity of the vintage...solid ripeness in its aromas and flavors, good sweetness in its tannin, and a great finish.
