Tasting Notes

Tasting from 22.03.2017: Ulrich Sautter & Team

Reductive, almond, cherry stone, somewhat smoky, almost Pinot-like in aroma, elegant on the palate, fine-grained but also firm tannin, strong acid nerve, has little fullness for a Merlot, also on the palate this is more of a Pinot structure.
