Estimate
Opens with a burst of savory forest floor aromas, leading to a rich and structured core of blueberry and cherry flavors, steeped in river stone and sandalwood accents that gather tension toward refined tannins.
...complex, highly perfumed bouquet displays spice-tinged raspberry, boysenberry and floral scents, along with a deeper cola accent and a hint of energizing minerality. Silky and seamless on the palate, offering expansive red and blue fruit, floral pastille and spicecake flavors supported by a core of juicy acidity. Shows impressive delineation and finishes very long and minerally, with even tannins and an echo of juicy berries.
...aromas of tar, turned earth, burnt orange, baked red berries and smoked cranberries with nuances of amaro, tree bark and a lacy veil of new oak spice. Medium-bodied, the palate is silky and offers intense, layered flavors with a firm but ripe frame and great freshness on the long, bitters-laced finish.
Subtle and savoury aromatics followed by a silken palate texture and plenty of palate stimulation. Delicious and persistent, with good tension and length.
