Tasting Notes

94
Tasting from 06.12.2023: Ulrich Sautter

Perfectly ripe Cabernet, slightly floral and slightly buttery undertones. Still and deep. Subtle oak. In the mouth, the wine has a buttery-soft background that binds the firm, extremely deep and dense tannic core. Needs 20 years - and will then live for another 20 or more.
