Estimate
...incredibly pure and balanced, with medium to full-bodied richness as well as textbook darker fruits, smoked tobacco, dried flowers, and a beautiful sense of minerality...nothing is out of place and the overall impression is a ripe, balanced, utterly classic Médoc...
...toasted notes intertwined with a delicate array of dark berries, spices, graphite, and liquorice. It's medium to full-bodied with nicely integrated oak aromas and delivers immense complexity and character. Black berries and spices with aeration. The palate is fleshy and has velvety tannins and long, penetrating finish.
...reveals opulent notes of Indian spices, cigar box, sandalwood and licorice with a crème de cassis and plum preserves core plus a hint of rose oil. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has a firm, chewy texture and lovely freshness delivering a very long, spicy finish.
Alluring aromas and flavors of warm fig bread, espresso, roasted mesquite and blackberry confiture are fleshy and impressively rendered, with a noticeable plum skin and toothy loamy edge.
Lots of aromas of roasted fruit, such as blueberries and raisins, and spices. It has full body with plenty of velvety tannins and a long, slightly chewy finish.
...has a ripe and opulent bouquet with lavish black fruit, fresh fig, dates and a touch of liquorice...palate is well balanced with supple, rounded tannins. There is a real candied essence...with quite a pronounced liquorice finish that you want to go back to.
Sexy nose offers superripe currant, raspberry, graphite and coconut. Lush, very rich and fine-grained.
... solid, powerful wine packed with tannins and heavy black fruits.... this wine is still knitting itself together. But in future years, watch for the generosity, the richness as well as the finesse and freshness.
