Tasting Notes

Tasting from 17.10.2022: Othmar Kiem, Simon Staffler

Deep, dark, almost impenetrable ruby red. Intense nose of blackcurrant, cedar wood and cocoa beans, with a hint of eucalyptus on the finish. Firm, still youthful tannins on the palate, supporting acidity, some cinnamon with a juicy finish.
