Tasting Notes

Tasting from 03.09.2020: Benjamin Herzog und Dominik Vombach

Elegant bouquet with sour cherry, ripe plum, caramel, mocha, and milk chocolate. Hints of Christmas spices, especially cardamom. Slender and elegant on the palate, with noticeable acidity, dark wild berry flavours, and fine tannins, finishing long with mineral notes.
