Tasting from 09.10.2019: Peter Moser

Dark ruby, purple reflections, discreet brightening on the rim. Nuances of dark berryish confit, hints of blackberry, subtle savouriness, floral notes, a touch of orange zest and nougat. Juicy, good complexity, fresh cherry fruit, fine tannins, mineral touch. It lingers well and will benefit from bottle age.
