Estimate
Brooding aromas of wet stone and grapefruit. Juicy, brisk and penetrating, with mouthcoating, citrussy fruit enlivened by strong acidity and complicated by a spicy element. A big wine with terrific breadth and a rather powerful structure.
Pure and graceful, with concentrated lemon and apple notes...rich up front, then a crisp acidity takes over on the finish.
The nose and flavors are decidedly rounder, richer and a good deal more forward than the prior wine with buckets of sappy, mouth coating extract plus plenty of finishing intensity and excellent persistence. This is a stunner of a wine...
