Tasting Notes

Tasting from 23.06.2023: Othmar Kiem & Simon Staffler

Shimmering, deep ruby. Opens with notes of sour berryish fruit, cassis and blackberry, also rum-steeped fruit, green-spicy components in the background. Hearty, gripping tannin on the palate, shows a lot of firm drive, then unfortunately quite rough in the finish, earthy notes.
