Tasting Notes

Tasting from 19.02.2021: Dominik Vombach und Benjamin Herzog

Intense bouquet, characterised by fruity drops. Notes of blackberry, raspberry and plum. Also savoury hints of liquorice and caraway. Elegant yet powerful on the palate, ripe fresh acidity, fine-grained tannins, lots of dark berry fruit, long savoury finish on black pepper.
