Tasting from 09.07.2021: Othmar Kiem und Simon Staffler

Dark ruby red colour. Opens on the nose with leathery, light tones of bacon, slightly fumé, yet with plenty of concentrated dark berries. On the palate with great grip, clinging, opens with grippy tannins, full-bodied persistence and exciting length. Put away and enjoy fully in a few years!
