Fantastic aromas of sweet tobacco, rose petals, mushrooms and dark fruits such as raspberries and currants. Citrus blossom, too. Full body, firm and velvety tannins, yet this remains tight and polished. Very reserved and beautiful...
... crème de cassis, white flowers, lead pencil shavings, pen ink, incense and camphor. It hits the palate with full-bodied richness but not a bit of heaviness. Great precision, vibrant underlying acidity, and sweet, long tannins...
... beautifully layered throughout, with striking aromatics and tons of nuance. There is no shortage of intensity... nuanced, classy and super-polished... Dollops of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot round out the blend.
Offering aromas of crushed blackberry, graphite, cedar and gravel, this is a rough-and-tumble style that will appeal to fans of rustic, chewy Cabernets. Time should be an asset, as this is smoothing out, maintaining focus.
