Estimate
...an immensely elegant wine, textured and refined in character. Cigar box, sage, cedar and pencil shaving accent a plush midpalate of additional complexity and structure, the fruit a mix of blueberry and black currant...a classic, impressive wine...
...beautiful currant fruits, dried tobacco, camphor, spice, and chocolate notes... Full-bodied, rich, and beautifully concentrated, with a mountain of tannins, it stays balanced, seamless, and lengthy.
...powerful scents of warm cassis, baked black cherries, warm plums and dried Provence herbs with nuances of grilled meats, unsmoked cigars and licorice with a touch of tar. The full-bodied palate is densely laden with black fruit and savory layers, framed by firm, grainy tannins and seamless freshness, finishing on a lingering fragrant earth note.
Rich, ample and resonant...possesses impressive depth. Black cherry, plum, mocha, licorice, cloves and dark raspberry... Hints of scorched earth, licorice, cedar and tobacco infuse the potent finish with striking complexity.
