Tasting Notes
Bright, dark ruby red. Initially aromas of sealing wax, then subtle alcohol, opens up after a little time on ripe Amarena cherries, cranberries, fine earthy tones, with a finish of old wood and black tea. Compact on the palate with finely-meshed tannins, beautiful juiciness, clear and elegant, spicy finish with a slightly burnt touch.
More about the tastingBright, dark ruby red. On the nose initially lots of sealing wax and a touch of medicinal alcohol notes. With time it opens a little more to reveal ripe Amarena cherries and cranberries, plus some fine earthy tones. Elegant wood and black tea lurk in the background. On the palate it's compact, with tight tannins matched by a pleasant fruit core that feels clear and elegant. Finishes on spice, with a slight brandy touch.
