Tasting Notes
Medium ruby garnet, good depth of color, broad rim brightening. Relatively sweet on the nose, delicately caramelized, a hint of crème brulée, with some wild berry confit. Soft texture, already a little melting, subtle vegetal notes on the finish. One could have expected a little more life from a magnum, this wine has been at its peak for some time. (2011/trinken)
