Tasting from 25.02.2022: Benjamin Herzog und Dominik Vombach

Elegant bouquet with concentrated fruit. Notes of preserved sour cherry, dried wild berries and dried plum. Also hints of caramel, dark baked bread and black pepper. Elegant and flattering on the palate, with beautiful ripe acidity, cherry and berry fruit as well as notes of cocoa and cinnamon. Fine-grained tannin, long finish.
