Estimate
Currants, blueberries, plum stones, chocolate and tobacco leaf on the nose. It’s full-bodied with firm, velvety tannins. Very balanced and supple with a juicy core of dark fruit and savory, earthy undertones. Sweet fruit in the center-palate.
Lots of earthy tobacco, gravelly earth, shiitake, and assorted darker fruits... Medium to full-bodied, it has a wonderful core of sweet fruit, polished tannins, and a great finish.
...aromas of raspberry, strawberry, black tea, leather, menthol and minerals...smooth, fine-grained and rather thick, then saturates the palate with red and darker fruits and spices.
