Tasting from 21.06.2022: Victoria Daskal

Deep amber verging on a pale tawny in the glass. Slightly oxidized and pungent concoction of saffron, spice, mandarin and crème brulée. The palate is surprisingly fresh and lively underneath a complex kaleidoscope of tertiary sweet and savoury flavours. There is an extremely pleasurable bitterness on the finish which offsets the sweetness of this wine.
