Estimate
Extreme amounts of cracked black pepper spice up the crumbled lilac, dark-black-plum and snappy red-currant aromas on the dynamic nose of this cool-climate bottling. There's a wild zestiness to the palate, where the peppery spice plays well with black-raspberry, lavender and rosemary flavors.
...very pretty and delicate. Whole clusters add striking aromatic top notes redolent of dried flowers, mint and herbs. In the glass, the Estate is gracious and light on its feet. Silky tannins add to a feeling of understatement and finesse.
...bright, lifted scents of cracked pepper and mint with touches of olive and tar and a core of fresh blue and black fruits...palate is concentrated, layered, fresh and lifted with a ripe, grainy frame and long finish.
