Tasting Notes

4.5
Tasting from 31.08.2006

Deep dark color. Delicate animal nuances on the nose, fine touch of precious wood, smoky minerality. Fine texture on the palate, pleasant extract sweetness, pithy, very balanced and aristocratic, a very appealing drinking experience. Can already be enjoyed now, but also has very good development potential.
