Tasting Notes

92
Tasting from 23.06.2023: Othmar Kiem & Simon Staffler

Rich, deep dark ruby in colour with a purple hue. An intense nose with plenty of dark berry fruit, redolent of mulberry, blackberry, and dark cherry, plus some undergrowth. Full-bodied, richly enveloping on the palate with lots of dark berry fruit, before unfortunately finishing with quite drying tannins.
