Tasting from 01.01.2017: Peter Moser

Strong ruby garnet, orange reflections, soft ochre rim. Very complex bouquet and incredibly seductive, dark berry fruit, tobacco nuances, a hint of nougat caramel, white truffle. The palate is punchy and juicy with silky, ripe tannins, wonderful fruit, fine dark cherry fruit, a seamless wine endowed with enormous length, seems so charming and natural, lingers for minutes, endowed with enormous ageing potential and is already pure drinking pleasure today. Happy are those who have this wine in their cellar.
