Translate to English Herber und fester, holzwürziger und etwas animalischer Duft nach schwarzen Beeren mit tabakigen, etwas teerigen und zart metallischen Noten, pfeffrig-gewürzigen Aromen sowie einem Hauch Speck. Ziemlich fest gewirkt im Mund, herbe schwarze Frucht mit rauchigen und gewürzigen Holznoten, etwas Teer, Speck und Pfeffer am Gaumen, ein wenig Provencekräuter, nachhaltig, feinsandiges, reifes Tannin, überraschend kühl für den hohen Alkohol, Bitterschokolade und Tabak, sehr guter bis langer Abgang mit salzigen Anklängen. In hervorragender Verfassung.
