Tasting Notes
Piquant cherry and clearly ethereal to savoury balsamic aromas, tobacco, a tiny bit of beeswax. The palate shows that the wine has been extracted with restraint, is rather designed for juiciness and slender elegance, but still does not have to do without density and (credibly chalky) mineral notes.
More about the tastingDark ruby-garnet, violet reflections, broad rim brightening. Fine cherry notes, a hint of dried fruit and wild berry confit, floral touch, mandarin zest. Juicy, fresh structure, medium complexity, delicate tannins, lemony touch, fruity sweetness of red berries on the finish, lingers well.
