Tasting Notes

Tasting from 14.10.2025: Othmar Kiem, Simon Staffler

Bright dark gold with orange. Oxidative notes on the nose with heavily roasted hazelnut and walnut, followed by dried date and black tea. The palate opens with acidity, reminiscent of ripe apple and apricot. Complex fruit flavours with some bitter and coffee aromas through to the finish.
