Estimate
Deep, complex nose dominated by raspberry and spices. Creamy and concentrated, even voluptuous...with the whole-cluster vinification energizing the very dense middle palate and accentuating the wine's structure. The tannins reach the front teeth on the very long whiplash of a finish.
...notably ripe aromas of cassis and black raspberry liqueur-like scents... The very seductive, concentrated, suave and mouth coating flavors possess both excellent volume and solid mid-palate concentration before terminating in a balanced and lingering finale.
Very sweet indeed...some purity and integrity. Very concentrated and firm with polished tannins. Some real depth of flavour to this. A certain sap and savour. Neat with medium length. Lots of pleasure here.
