Tasting Notes

Tasting from 01.01.2017: Martin Kilchmann
Intense golden yellow; mature bouquet, hints of forest honey, cinnamon, pineapple, some leather and mocha; soft attack on the palate, full-bodied, subtle acidity, somewhat dusty tartness, aromas of hazelnut and forest honey; long, slightly bitter finish. Full-bodied, vintage-influenced type, still presentable under this aspect.
