Estimate
...stunning array of blueberries, melted licorice, cassis, scorched earth, violets, and tobacco... Gorgeously concentrated, full-bodied, packed with sweet fruit, yet still weightless and elegant on the palate, it’s another magical wine from Carter Cellars.
...notes of fresh blueberries, black raspberries, ripe black and red currants and black olives with hints of cedar chest, powdered cinnamon, pencil lead and camphor. The full-bodied palate is laden with taut, crunchy black fruit, framed by firm, ripe, grainy tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long with loads of mineral sparks.
Deep and layered, with striking aromatic presence and tons of breadth...once deep and yet very refined, with powerful but well-integrated tannins and fine balance.
