Estimate
Powerfully scented, expansive red/blue fruit preserves, potpourri, exotic spice and incense aromas show outstanding clarity and mineral lift. Sweet and focused on the palate, highlighting deeply concentrated, lively spice-accented boysenberry, cherry liqueur and floral pastille flavors...floral and spice notes carry emphatically through the youthfully tannic finish, which gives superb energy and lift.
...also terrific, with a brilliant nose of cassis and black raspberry fruits as well as ground pepper, spicy wood, and graphite...medium to full-bodied, focused, concentrated, incredibly impressive...
...good concentration to the black cherry, plum paste and anise flavors that glide through the svelte palate, with wood spice and graphite shavings adding balance and detail. Round and velvety, this has an intensity that builds with bitter cherry, smoke and violet on the finish.
