Weingut Prinz von Hessen

Der erste Anblick fasziniert mit einem dunklen Purpur, dass das Licht verschluckt. Die Aromen erinnern an dunkle Brombeere und Sauerkirsche mit einem Hauch von Schlehe. Dezente Holznoten harmonieren mit dunkelroten Beeren und einer leichten Schärfe. Die frische Säure und der lange Abgang runden diesen Rotwein perfekt ab.

Tasting Notes

Tasting from 14.11.2025: Ulrich Sautter

Wild cherries, red vermouth, sweet herbal candy, elderberries and cool minerality as well as mint. Very fine juiciness, also fine-grained tannins, beautiful tension and smooth flow thanks to the fresh acidity. On the finish with herbal and savoury notes along with the fruit.
