Estimate
...bouquet of crushed plums, medicinal cherries, balsam herbs and camphor hints. It’s elegant in character, with velvety textures that wash masses of ripe wild berries and savory spices across a core of bracing acidity that adds a pleasant tension. This finishes long yet lightly structured with echoes of licorice and hard candies.
Rich and round, exhibiting plum, black cherry, wild rosemary, thyme and mineral flavors. Mellowing, yet still flexes some tannic clout on the finish.
...cinnamon spices, ink, iron, orange peel and earthy berries...full-bodied, with chewy tannins and a nicely austere, almost rustic finish.
Wild berry, pipe tobacco and blue flower aromas waft out of the glass. Juicy and polished, the linear palate offers tart pomegranate, orange zest and star anise alongside bright acidity and lithe tannins before closing on a hint of coffee bean.
...delicate embroidery of red fruit, pressed violet and potting soil. There are subtle highlights of dried orange peel and iron ore as well. This pretty wine prizes fruit purity and simplicity.
