Tasting from 12.03.2020: Peter Moser

Deep dark ruby, deep colour core, purple reflections and a discreet bright rim. Dark blackberry fruit on the nose is underlaid with fine nougat and sweet wood spices, some cassis, delicate minerality, this is a multi-faceted bouquet. Complex, concentrated fruit on the palate of ripe cherries, round, supporting tannins, fresh, lively structure, precise and long lasting. Dark berries also on the finish, salty minerality in the echo, good ageing potential.
