Estimate
Floral, high-pitched aromas of blackberry, cassis, licorice, violet, minerals and mint. Lovely depth and pliancy to its densely packed, very primary black fruit flavors, with harmonious framing acidity. Finishes firm and long, with suave, spreading tannins.
...lots of currant, fig and blackberry fruit allied to a racy graphite spine and carrying through a sleek, toasted, grilled herb–tinged finish.
...well-defined and focused bouquet with scents of raspberry, wild strawberry, cedar and mint – all vibrant and stylish...medium-bodied with dusty blackberry and raspberry notes, well-integrated oak with a slightly introspective, earthy finish with a long pepper aftertaste.
