Tasting Notes

Tasting from 10.02.2017: Peter Moser und Ulrich Sautter

Ethereal savouriness, bouquet of Ricola, but also blueberry, quite fresh and a little jammy. Silky on the palate, while elegant and with intensely tactile minerality, well-integrated acidity, alcohol disappearing behind juiciness, a hint of youthful astringency in the transition to the finish showing further reserves and displaying grip and freshness. Brilliant balance and impressive minerality, and all with great length.
