Estimate
...magical wine... Wafting from the glass with notes of cherries, cassis, dark chocolate, coniferous forest floor and rose petals...full-bodied, velvety and layered, with an incisive spine of acidity, lively acids and terrific concentration, concluding with a long, resonant finish.
...earthy, woodland-scented red berry fruit, touches of cold tea and a hint of licorice that emerges with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins and brown spices sprinkled over the red berry fruit, perhaps just a touch of new oak needing to be subsumed on the persistent finish. Very fine.
