Estimate
...darkly floral with an herbal tinge and hints of crushed ashen stone that give way to vivid black raspberry and exotic spice...juicy and spry, with racy cherry-berry fruit and stimulating acidity that creates a sensation of boundless energy, even as a saturation of primary concentration settles in toward the close...finishes with incredible length and youthful tension, leaving balsamic spice, sage and licorice notes lingering over a bed of dusty tannins.
...delivers granite, slate, black cherry and dark currant in one very impactful dollop...elegant throughout and especially on the mid-palate.
Cherry, raspberry, leather, camphor, spice and tobacco aromas and flavors are the highlights of this taut red, which is balanced in a compact way. Shows plenty of energy, with a hint of black pepper gracing the long finish.
You can smell the effects of a warm growing season in this one with very ripe cherry and strawberry aromas that follow through to a full body, round and soft tannins and a tangy finish.
Savoury, saline mineral notes over raspberry and cherry fruit. Generous, suave cherry fruit that is still a little embryonic, matched by beautiful, fine, long, coating tannins.
