Tasting from 09.10.2015

Dark ruby garnet with purple reflections and a broader rim brightening. Ripe cherries and candied tangerine zest with a a touch of licorice, woody spice and nougat in the background. Finely textured, the palate is elegant and balanced with red forest berries matched by a mineral structure that lingers for a long time. It seems light on its feet and already accessible, but with secure ageing potential for many years.
