Tasting from 01.01.2021: Othmar Kiem, Simon Staffler
Bright ruby with a rich purple shimmer. Very intense nose with lots of ripe dark berry fruit, initially lots of tobacco and leather, then rich dark currants and blackberries, carob in the background. Straightforward and clear on the palate, lots of juicy fruit, then opens up with firm, full-bodied tannins, gives the wine a lot of grip, long finish.
