Tasting Notes

Tasting from 01.01.2016: Peter Moser

Strong carmine garnet, violet reflections, subtle edge brightening. Ripe plums, fine dried fruit notes, pleasant chocolaty touch. Powerful, spicy, ripe tannins, black berries on the finish, medium complexity, subtle peppery nuances, still very young overall.
