It’s seamless and layered in well-integrated tannin and oak, full-bodied and muscular yet refined, with wisps of tobacco, dusty earth, and dark berry that linger along a structured finish, balanced throughout.
...silky and refined wine that offers brilliant dark florals on the nose with espresso bean, black licorice and shades of sweet pipe tobacco...palate is refined and elegant with great texture and sense of weight. Black Forest cake flavors mingle well with Arabica bean, freshly tilled stony soils and creme de violette notes.
Keenly structured and refined, with polished flavors of blackberry and currant accented by espresso, garrigue and tobacco as this gathers tension and polish on the finish.
...seductively round and elegant, with fresh acidity and crunchy mineral tones underscoring depths of mocha-tinged black fruits. Powerful and complex yet youthfully restrained, it finishes with outstanding length and concentration, leaving hints of graphite and a slight citrus taste to linger.
...has inviting aromas of cassis, milk chocolate, violet and pencil shavings...full-bodied palate is ripe and concentrated without going over the top. It’s structured by soft, approachable tannins and refreshing acidity, and it has a long, nuanced finish.
