Tasting Notes

91

Tasting from 25.11.2018

Dark ruby garnet, purple reflections, delicate edge brightening. Intense aroma of meadow herbs, wood savouriness background with dark berry confit, some cassis and liquorice. Good body, juicy, ripe plums and blackberries, mineral, fruity-sweet finish, lingers well, versatile.
