Tasting from 01.01.2023: Peter Moser

Dark ruby, opaque core, purple reflections, subtle brightening on the rim. Ripe plums, black cherries, some nougat, a shy bouquet. Juicy on the palate with ripe plums, some nougat, underpinned by vivid tannins, chocolatey finish, a wine with depth and a spicy food wine. Certain ageing potential.
