Estimate
...ripe darker fruits as well as peppery herbs and some gamey, exotic nuances that develop with air. Rich, full-bodied, and concentrated...ample structure, good mid-palate depth, and a great finish.
...very varietal with dark berries, sweet tobacco, crushed stones and spice. Full-bodied with integrated tannins that are long and creamy. Wet earth and dark berries at the end. Lovely finish. Juicy and delicate.
...peculiar wine... The tannins are a real highlight; they have a pumice stone/pulverized character, and really draw the dark purple/gray fruit characters over the tongue and through into the long finish...detailed and focused... Black tea, blackberry/raspberry seeds, fennel, dark cocoa and graphite. Good. Structure over fruit.
