Tasting Notes

Tasting from 09.10.2019: Peter Moser

Strong ruby with purple reflections and a broad, watery rim. On the nose there is a tobacco savouriness, a fine herbal touch, pleasant salty nuances, with dark berries and black cherry in the background. On the palate it shows medium complexity, red cherry and a lively structure - very light on its feet. There is a red berry-lemon finish, fine tannins and a salty aftertaste. This needs a few more years to develop, but is very promising.
