Tasting Notes

Tasting from 05.12.2011

Dark ruby-garnet color with violet highlights and a subtle leg. Dark berry jam with peppery and spicy undertones; hints of fine nougat and fresh herbal spice. Full-bodied, good complexity, pronounced tannins, lively acidity, red berry nuances on the finish, a delicate hint of dark chocolate on the finish; needs further bottle aging.
