Tasting from 12.03.2020: Peter Moser

An opaque, dark ruby core with purple reflections. Already approachable. Pomerol-like with subtle hints of truffle and cherry , underpinned by ripe fig, nougat, and hazelnut, as well as a floral note of candied violet. Textured, complex and full of opulent dark berry fruits, ripe tannins, and savoury mineral notes on the persistent finish. It has the potential to age for decades.
