Estimate
There is plenty of tannin here but it is so refined – and the fruit so sweetly concentrated – that one has to attend closely to notice it, and the textural impression is one of silken refinement.
Rather withdrawn but pure nose hints at dark berries, minerals and a menthol austerity. Tight, pure and imploded, with superb definition of flavor but very introverted today. A note of red licorice gives lift to the middle palate.
...layered & refined red berry fruit aromas that are nuanced by hints of underbrush and fresh earth that continue onto the delicious, intense and sophisticated flavors that display a really seductive silkiness on the mouth coating finish.
