Estimate
Deep, rich and spicy...evokes a pleasant earthiness underlying the cherry and strawberry fruit. Firm tannins uphold the long aftertaste, while overall there is harmony and complexity. Fresh, juicy finish.
...excellent...bouquet of ripe cherries, wild berries and bergamot, complemented by savory bass notes of mossy forest floor, espresso roast and grilled squab...full-bodied...with excellent amplitude and dimension, fine-grained but firm structuring tannins and a penetrating, mineral finish.
...bouquet is deep, pure and refined, offering up scents of cherries, red currants, bonfire, venison, coffee, a complex base of soil tones, cedar and a fine, spicy topnote...full-bodied, focused and very soil-driven in personality, with a rock solid core, ripe, seamless tannins and perfect balance on the long and nascently complex finish.
...hints of smoky bacon crisps bedeviling the red fruit underneath...medium-bodied with supple tannin...shows fine harmony and persistence, a spicy residue lingering in the mouth.
...red-fruited...with an attractively dusty overlay... Chewy, fresh and just a touch spicy on the long finish.
