Estimate
...a refined, elegant, mild-mannered bouquet with pure raspberry preserve, cranberry and subtle tobacco scents... The palate is medium-bodied with a gentle but insistent grip on the entry.
Smoky, with pretty rose, cherry, sandalwood and spice flavors underneath. Firm and lean, yet remains elegant as this winds down on the lingering finish.
An exuberantly spicy nose flashes notes of Asian-style tea, black cherry and sandalwood, all of which is trimmed in noticeable oak influence...a lovely texture to the equally succulent, round and sappy flavors that coat the palate and particularly so on the moderately austere and slightly warm finale that displays sneaky good length.
