Quite floral, this shows a wealth of very ripe plums and black cherries. The tannins are powerful with a thread of spicy cinnamon-infused oak. Rippling with power. Yet ever so refined and beautiful.
... The plum, black cherry, mocha, espresso, new leather and spice flavors are all given an extra kick of textural richness...full-throttle, intense Saint-Émilion...
...deep, full-bodied, opulent beauty with notes of chocolaty dark fruits, leafy herbs and lots of graphite. Possessing a wealth of fruit and sweet...building tannin...thick, beautifully layered wine...
...nose of crushed blackberries, plum preserves and beef drippings with touches of sautéed herbs and tapenade, the full-bodied palate has loads of concentration and energy with a firm, velvety frame and long finish.
A ripe, muscular, extracted style, with lots of warm fig, raspberry and blackberry confiture flavors wrestling with one another. Shows a brambly imprint on the fruit, and a grippy undertow of roasted apple wood adds to the heft...
Big, ripe and packed with tannins, this is a dense wine. The concentration is palpable, rich with black plum and berry fruits...powerful wine with its great tannins and fruit...
