Estimate
...features baked black cherries, mulberries and plum preserves with touches of rose hips, Marmite toast and fallen leaves. Full-bodied, rich and decadent in the mouth, the voluptuous fruit is well framed by firm, rounded tannins and great freshness, finishing long.
...a very powerful and intense blueberry and crème de cassis bouquet with vanillary new oak and wilted violets. The palate is medium-bodied with sweet tannins, layers of lush black fruit laced with cassis and a lightly spiced finish...
A red with a fantastic core of dark berries and hints of vanilla, as well as firm tannins. Full-bodied, chewy tannins and a flavorful finish. Big wine with lots of structure. Very well done.
It has a rich, full-bodied, powerful style as well as notes of smoked black fruits, roasted coffee, earth, and graphite. With plenty of integrated oak, good freshness and purity, and ripe tannins, it's another solid, impressive 2018.
Perfumed, lifted fresh dark fruit. Luscious aromas of pure blackcurrant and blueberry intensity. More sober on the palate but attractively so. Dark, rocky, savoury and dry in texture but leaves your mouth clean. Just a bit of heat on the finish.
