Estimate
...bouquet of cherries, wild berries, exotic spices, peonies, rose petals and sweet soil tones. On the palate, it's full-bodied, deep and multidimensional, with a layered and concentrated core, strikingly refined tannins, lively acids and a long, resonant finish.
...fragrant red berries mixed with dried blood, undergrowth and wilted rose petal, a touch of orange peel emerging with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, very intense black fruit and a little more depth and grip than the Ruchottes at the moment.
The big-bodied flavors possess a highly seductive texture that is at once opulent and velvety, all wrapped in a robust, powerful and exceptionally firm finish that exhibits outstanding length.
