Blackberries, herbs, green pine needles, blackcurrants and lead pencil. Full-bodied with incredible structure and powerful tannins... Muscular, but the tannins give form and focus to the beautiful fruit...Extraordinary.
…flat-out awesome wine…extraordinary notes of crème de cassis, blueberries, mountain scrub brush, graphite, violets, and cedar pencil, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, layers of ripe, seamless tannins…a beautiful sense of freshness, and a great, great finish.
...vivacious scents of black cherries, black raspberries and black currant pastilles, followed by nuances of pencil shavings, tilled earth, lilacs and underbrush plus a waft of crushed rocks…full-bodied palate…packed with muscular, impactful black fruits, featuring a rock-solid backbone of firm, grainy tannins, finishing with a whole firework display of earthy/minerally sparks.
…powerful and yet light on its feet. Red berry fruit, iron, dried herbs and rose petals…with myriad layers of nuance… Red fruit, pomegranate, blood orange, gravel and dried herbs linger.
Packed with fruit…vivid and full of energy, with plum pâte de fruit, açaí reduction and boysenberry preserves flavors streaming through, carried by a graphite note, all while an invigorating licorice snap and floral streak work throughout. A great racy iron note at the very end carries it all through the encore.
