Estimate
...rich, dark and beautifully layered. The intensity and depth of the fruit is nicely balanced by the impossibly fine, silky tannins. This sumptuous, textured wine is impressive and totally compelling...Anticipated maturity: 2019-2039.
..Wild, captivating nose combines redcurrant, mocha, dark chocolate, tobacco and botanical herbs. Dense, sappy and sweet...excellent depth and strong soil tones to the redcurrant and chocolate flavors...has the energy to reward cellaring.
...aromatically complex...cassis and black raspberry...anise, clove, hoisin and soy sauce nuances...generous yet powerful and I particularly like the focus and overall sense of harmony on the gorgeously long and velvet-textured finale.
