Tasting Notes

Tasting from 25.02.2022: Benjamin Herzog und Dominik Vombach

Fruity and spicy on the nose, with dried plum fruit, raspberry and cherry. Hints of dark baked bread, liquorice and black pepper. Medium-bodied on the palate, with soft acidity and dark and red berryish fruit. Slightly persistent tannin, medium-long finish.
