Tasting Notes

90
Tasting from 10.10.2025: Benjamin Herzog und Dominik Vombach

A classic nose, with notes of ripe plum, black cherry, dark berries, savoury nuances, some graphite. Beautifully full-bodied on the palate, pleasantly soft with a ripe acidity and noticeable, soft tannins. Lingers well.
