Tasting from 24.03.2017: Sautter, Ulrich

A rich bouquet with aromas of ripe cassis fruit, menthol, eucalyptus, a fitting spicy oak character, and initial almost truffle-like ripe flavours. On the palate powerful, expansive, but without the impression of breadth, the juicy fruit dominates the alcohol, the acidity though mild gives length, and some viscosity provides roundness. It meets all expectations of Chilean opulence.
