Tasting from 13.02.2020: Simon Staffler, Othmar Kiem

Rich, dark ruby red colour. An expressive nose of very ripe cherry, fine spiciness, forest fruits, graphite and cocoa powder. On the palate it is grippy with compact tannins. Lively and multi-layered, it is slightly saline and could certainly age further in bottle.
