Tasting from 16.04.2020: Peter Moser

Strong ruby, purple reflections, broader ochre rim. Delicate nougat, nutty underlaid dark berry confit, a touch of honey, a hint of plum, subtle noble wood savouriness. Complex, juicy, a bit more powerful, ripe sweet tannins, chocolaty touch on the finish, has a broad aromatic profile, substantial and long. Has huge potential, showing extremely well already, has further ageing potential for several more decades.

93 % Tempranillo, 7 % Mazuelo. Dark ruby, shining at the rim. Clear fruit intensity, rain-wet stone, dried porcini mushroom, very balanced and elegant, generous. Elegant, full of finesse and intense on the palate, with grandiose sweetness and taut tannins, great concentration. A furious wine that combines power and intensity with mineral freshness and powerful elegance.
