Estimate
Lots of crunchy red cherries and blue plums followed by violets, fresh sage and Christmas spices with baking spice and coconuts. Medium- to full-bodied with superb fine-grained racy tannins and beautifully refreshing acidity that gives an edge to it. Gorgeous finesse and elegance with harmony and precision. Delightful, too.
Red and black fruits mingle with the firm structure of this dense wine...tannins are solid...
Gorgeous fragrance, pretty and pure. Juicy and clean...lovely energy and focus...lifted, bright but not searing, juicy but not too acidic, weighty but still streamlined and direct...fine tannins...some tension, and a soft, sality liquorice outline. Feels elegant and finessed, polished and stylish with lift and movement.
...opens in the glass with a pure bouquet of raspberries, cherries and plums mingled with pretty top notes of iris, licorice, mint and sweet spices. Medium to full-bodied, deep and layered...fleshy and sensual, with a deep and seamless core of fruit framed by ultra-refined tannins, a bright spine of acidity and a long, mineral finish. With an impressively low finished pH of 3.37...
...elegant, finesse-driven...beautiful aromatics of ripe red and black fruits, scorched earth, graphite, and sappy flowers. It's nicely concentrated, has ripe, polished tannins, and flawless overall balance, all while playing in the more mid-weight, elegant, focused style of the vintage.
...clean and precise bouquet. Redcurrant, cranberry and wild strawberry scents gradually emerge... The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins...quite saline with just a hint of licorice coming through toward the finish.
Fresh and open in feel, with loganberry and blackberry notes laced with mulling spice, black tea and savory hints. Concludes with a potpourri echo.
Lively, quite winning nose...nicely balanced... Drying but long, clean finish.
