Tasting Notes

Tasting from 23.11.2020: Ulrich Sautter

Dark in appearance, cassis and black cherry in the lush nose, also herbs and beetroot; voluminous and impressive. On the palate there are powerful and incisive tannins. A bold and still young wine that needs time but also has good potential for further maturation.
