Estimate
Masses of crushed cherries, dried florals, cinnamon, clove and stone dust...velvety and elegant with masses of dark red fruits and inner spice complicated by intense minerality and fine tannins that slowly saturate. It leaves lavender, licorice and dark, dark chocolate through the finale.
A spicy, peppery accent jumps out first, followed by dried dark cherries, blackberries, raisins, dark olives and cedar wood. Really smooth and composed, with a medium to full body that’s coated with melting, chocolatey tannins.
Round and silky, showing chewy tannins that are well-meshed with flavors of pureed black cherry, candied violet, eucalyptus and medicinal herbs, with a subtle thread of sweet smoke. Juicy, with a lingering, spiced finish.
...dried black cherries that have been dusted with sweet and savory spices, roasted herbs and turned earth...palate is detailed and elegant, with notes of worn leather, clove, anise, prune and black tea.
