Tasting from 01.01.2016: Peter Moser

Dark ruby garnet, deep core, purple reflections, watery edge. Intense dark berry fruit, fine noble wood notes, hints of nougat and candied orange zest, pleasant spiciness on the finish. Powerful, juicy, fine savouriness, perfectly integrated tannins, finesse-rich acidic structure, subtle extracted sweetness on the finish, fine minerality in the back taste, certain ageing potential for decades, lasts for minutes.
