Tasting Notes

Tasting from 18.02.2022: Othmar Kiem, Simon Staffler

Rich, deep, dark ruby-garnet colour. Open nose with pronounced ripe notes of plum confit, tobacco and sliced pear. Impure on the palate, black bread crust, grippy tannins, unfortunately dries out considerably on the finish, clearly oxidative.
