Tasting Notes

95
Tasting from 01.01.2017: Peter Moser

Strong ruby, purple reflections, broad and bright rim. The beginning is restrained, subtle red berry notes, a touch of rose hip, discreet touch of tobacco, nuances of candied orange zest. Good complexity, pronounced fruit core, subtle notes of sea buckthorn and plums, sweet, ripe tannins, highly elegant texture, fine acidity, a wonderfully old-fashioned wine with Burgundian-like elegance, shows great length and minerality on the finish. It has reached the perfect age.
