Tasting Notes

Tasting from 10.02.2017: Peter Moser und Ulrich Sautter
Dark ruby garnet, violet reflections, delicate ochre rim. Fine nuances of eucalyptus, some nougat, black berries, sun-dried tomatoes. Complex, juicy, fine extract sweetness, supporting tannins that are still somewhat demanding, chocolaty finish, a versatile food companion.
