Estimate
...this marries rock-laden raspberry fruit to precise and vivid acidity. The lightly applied (roughly one-quarter) new French oak puts a touch of pretty toast into the mix. Taken all in all, it's a doctoral thesis in structure, definition and terroir.
...scented of warm red currant, cranberries, macerated blackberries and Morello cherries with accents of grapefruit peel, rose petals, fragrant earth and amaro. The medium-bodied palate explodes with ripe, nuanced fruits, firmly framed and fresh with a long, perfumed finish.
Aromas of fresh cedar, dark cherries and some cassis lead to a palate that has a very intense frame of firm tannin and some taut cassis and cherries below.
