Tasting Notes

Tasting from 09.10.2019: Peter Moser

Only 900 cases produced. This selection was first created from the 1966 vintage. Deep dark ruby, opaque core, purple reflections, delicate brightening on the rim. Notes of cassis and cherry confit, subtle hints of mint, eucalyptus and orange marmalade. Powerful, dark chocolate, ripe plums, white pepper, rounded tannins, pleasurable fruit and a persistent, ethereal finish. Good food wine with a muscular structure and wonderfully balanced acidity.
