Estimate
...huge nose of ripe currants, cassis, gravelly earth, rocky minerality, chocolate, and spring flowers. Deep, full-bodied, and concentrated on the palate, it shows more elegance and finesse than you’d expect given the nose, and the balance is spot on, it has pure, ripe tannins, no hard edges, and a great finish.
...complex aromas of ripe cherries, cinnamon, a dusting of fine earth, cola and cocoa. Full-bodied and rich but still almost drinkable already, this powerhouse Cab finishes long, with gentle, powdery tannins, a bit of peppery spice and perhaps just a touch of warmth.
