Tasting from 21.02.2019: Benjamin Herzog, Dominik Vombach

Intense fruit on the nose, with sour cherry, cranberry and plum. Plus some red bell peppers and spicy notes of clove and pepper. On the palate it is surprisingly light, dark, almost black aromatics and beguiling fruit. Seems elegant, slightly noticeable tannin.
