Estimate
Ripe dark berries, sweet tobacco and black licorice on the nose. Full-bodied with silky tannins. The acidity here is steady and livens up the blackberry and baked-cherry notes. Good intensity and depth.
...lovely, fruit-focused frame with juicy plum, blackberry reduction and hints of spiced cherry compote before showing elegant baking spices from the 50% new French oak. Medium to full-bodied, the wine displays a balanced structure with energetic acidity and buttressing tannins before ending with a long, lingering finish...
Rooding, inky, slightly high-toned scents of blackberry, licorice, menthol, bitter chocolate and herbs. Dense, moderately thick and concentrated, with a faint herbal element adding interest to the blackcurrant, blackberry, dark chocolate and licorice flavors. Lovely texture and depth here, in a distinctly dry style. Finishes with a smooth dusting of tannins and a subtle, lively, violet-tinged aftertaste.
