Tasting Notes

96
Tasting from 01.09.2021: Ulrich Sautter

Amarena cherry and shortbread on the nose with a little chocolate. A complex palate with ripe acidity, mellow, ripe tannin grain, and a clear but still youthfully tight fruit character. Despite the density and breadth there is also a transparent, quite light-footed structure.

More about the tasting

Seductive and profound aromas, with notes of red and dark fruit, liquorice, forest floor and a hint of smoke. Light on the palate, with dark aromas, fine tannins and a elegance driven by a touch of astringency.
