Tasting Notes

Tasting from 03.09.2020: Benjamin Herzog und Dominik Vombach

Boiled dark and red berries on the nose, plus sour cherry and some plum. Surrounded by a hint of vanilla, dark baked bread and some liquorice. Powerful yet elegant on the palate. Fresh wild berry fruit, fine, ripe tannin, beautiful acidity, long finish.
