Estimate
This is certainly one of the stars of the vintage. With its solid tannins and dark, smoky character, it is going to be powerful, but with such elegance. The fruit flavors combine richness and freshness in fine harmony.
Gorgeously complex, seductive aroma – perfumed, multilayered & even a little exotic in its spice, a touch of orange. Even with all that seduction, there's a breath of fresh air & energy. Soft, fresh & elegant. Fabulous harmony & delicacy...
Intense aromas of tar, blackberry and wet earth, with just a hint of tobacco and flowers. Full-bodied, chewy and long. Extracted, yet turns caressing and velvety in texture. Broad-shouldered and muscular for this estate.
...Burgundy-like bouquet with ample red cherries, candied strawberry & redcurrant... weight & balance... Cabernet Franc begins to express itself on the latter half, lending structure and grip, a dash of spice... a very fine Cheval Blanc...
Subdued but pure aromas of plum, flowers, licorice, menthol and Asian spices. Suave on entry, then dry and tight in the middle; extremely backward and shut down.
