... Concentrated raspberry purée comes through in both aroma and flavor, with laser focus. It's a magical combination of finesse, silkiness and strident youth.
Light and focused, showing distinctive subtlety. A layer of crinkly tannins underlies a pulsing core of mineral-accented cherry and red berry flavors, hinting at cinnamon as the finish lingers gently.
...lovely nose of mushroom, cinnamon, potpourri, licorice and earth with loads of floral nuances and a core of black and red berries. Medium-bodied and silky, it's just about even with its fruit and tertiary flavors, finely grained, fresh and finishing long...
...various red and dark currant, spice and briar scents. There is good intensity to the sleek and intense medium-bodied flavors that possess excellent volume that continues on to the dusty, complex and moderately austere finale...impressive.
... High-pitched red currant, cherry and dried rose scents are complemented by hints of sassafras and musky underbrush. Shows very good energy and cut to the juicy red berry and floral pastille flavors, which are given a bitter edge by a jolt of blood orange. Closes taut, subtly sweet and quite long; fine-grained tannins add grip to the vibrant red fruit.
...delicious earthy development and hints of herby stems as well as dark chocolate. Firm but powdery tannins, lovely plum and black cherry fruit. Fine acidic structure keeps the finish fresh. Superb.
