Estimate
A terroir-driven effort, it reveals aromas of raspberries and sweet kirsch as well as a medium-bodied, vigorously fresh, lively style. There is also good flavor authority.
Traditional style, and lovely, with sous bois character dominating the dried currant, balsa wood and game flavors.
Nose initially dominated by meat, toasted nuts and orange peel; showed a lively raspberry aroma with aeration. Tight, dense and peppery on entry, then lush and silky in the middle palate, with strong pepper and spice notes.
