Estimate
This gorgeous, full-bodied effort has a wonderful sense of purity and balance as well as classic notes of cassis, blueberries, graphite, charcoal, chocolate, and lead pencil shavings.
Densely packed...offering terrific energy and peppery vinosity to its chewy flavors of blackberry, cassis, licorice, bitter chocolate and minerals. Lovely salinity contributes nuance but there's also enticing fruit sweetness here. Finishes with surprising floral lift and sneaky length...savory, vibrant, firmly structured wine...
A big, chewy cabernet blend with lots of extracted tannins that frame the rich, intense fruit. It’s a little old-school with all the concentration, yet it remains fresh and agile at the same time.
...opens to a dense and chewy core with a firm dark fruit presence, offering aromas of black raspberry, blackberry and dark currant with a firm stony minerality and a generous helping of oak. Full-bodied...long, lingering finish, a mineral tension and tannic edge remain persistent on the palate with residual flavors of cedar and blackberry skin.
Rich and almost raisiny nose, some sweetness of fruit and firm tannins. Menthol and sweet cassis with chewy dense tannins and a lot of freshness...
