Estimate
Wood smoke, incense, peat metal shavings, machine oil, and mincemeat combine for an aromatic wave that practically leaves me gasping. Broad shouldered, mouth-coating, but palpably tannic...
There's a wild, feral quality about the cassis, cherry, iron and black pepper notes in this powerful red, which is dark and brooding. The tannins are a bit disjointed at this stage, but there's plenty of fruit. Fine length.
Lush, sexy and deep, with powerful extract and sappiness to its deep core of fruit. A metallic, iodiney quality and a saline element communicate a strong impression of the soil.
