Estimate
Refined, with flavors of dark plum, dried blackberry, mineral and tar. This offers lively hints of dried mint, showing some cedary accents. Features impressive lift on the finish, accented by chocolate notes.
A densely tannic wine, firm at the center and richly fruity on the outside. It is concentrated, with acidity shooting through the jammy black fruit. It's a finely structured wine...showing its rich side.
Wonderful aromas of crushed raspberries and wet earth. Full body, medium sweet, with a soft and round tannin structure. Medium finish. Pretty, leafy, sweet fruit aftertaste. Nice effort from this estate.
...relatively lighter, nevertheless well-defined, “light-hearted” bouquet that disguises its spirit well. The palate has a soft, rounded, viscous entry with kirsch, fresh prune and cassis all vying for attention...its parting gift is a long sweet molasses-tinged finish. This is one of the more accessible declarations and a joy.
... Smells of hot, dried undergrowth with that slightly currified nose. Lots of zip and richness. One of the earlier maturing ones but with no shortage of personality. Palate-scrubbing finish. Very honest.
