Estimate
...gamey, exotic, bloody blue and black fruits as well as smoked meat, toasted nuts, iron, pepper, and roasted herbs...medium to full-bodied richness, ripe, supple tannins, and a great finish.
...aromas bring the good old-fashioned funk, along with notes of tar, tapenade, potpourri, green olive and sea breeze. The palate is deft but shows plenty of intensity, lingering for a long time on the tobacco-filled finish. It's glorious.
...juicy and aromatic nose with wild strawberry, black raspberry, black pepper, roasted meats, black olive and smoked herbs. Medium-bodied...succulent dark red and black-fruited notions of smoked plum and dried potpourri, elements of baked clay and fine-grained tannins...long, winding finish that somersaults to a lasting expression of dusty purple flowers and spiced black cherries.
Aromas of dark raspberry, mocha, charred meat, black and green olive and herbs. Boasts penetrating savory intensity to its dark raspberry, smoked meat, olive and dried herb flavors... Fine-grained, concentrated Syrah with a suave finish and sneaky persistence.
