Tasting from 27.04.2017: Ulrich Sautter
Very closed on the nose, sour cherry. Red currant, mint, cocoa, sesame slices. On the palate with an emphatically creamy, flattering attack, but also densely textured, juicy and almost sweet in the fruit, relatively high alcohol, powerful, at the same time accessible and well-built. Intense and long, carried by the sweetness of the fruit, a dense wine with appeal.
