Translate to English Süßlich-holziger Duft nach eingemachten roten und etwas schwarzen Beeren mit kandiert-nussigen Tönen, herben getrocknet-kräuterigen Spuren und welk-floralen Aromen. Straffe, herbe Frucht im Mund, leicht röstige Holznoten und etwas Trockenkräuter, recht feines, teils leicht trocknendes Tannin, gewisser Säurebiss und typisch metallische Sortenaromen, nachhaltig am Gaumen, hat Biss, mineralische Anklänge, sehr guter, herber Abgang. Von uns in seiner Jugend klar unterschätzt.
