Estimate
Complex aromas and flavors of red berry, sandalwood, vanilla, floral and mineral are alluring, made all the more appealing by the elegant frame and vivid structure... Offers a fine, smoky finish.
...sapid bouquet of grilled game bird, espresso roast, wild plums and dark berries. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, ample and velvety, with real mid-palate substance, supple, melting tannins and impressive reserves of concentration and depth despite its elegant, understated profile. The finish is long, precise and succulent.
The palate is medium-bodied but with good volume in the mouth; this feels quite fleshy, but underneath there is a solid frame.
Really lively and pure and fresh but with undertow. Most impressive. Life and density.
