Translate to English Fester und recht tiefer Duft nach reifen Heidelbeeren, Maulbeeren und Zwetschgen mit etwas rauchig-tabakigem Holz, Lakritznoten, einer Spur Teer und gebrannten Nüssen sowie feinen gewürzigen Aromen. Dicht und kräftig im Mund, aber dennoch relativ kühl, reife, saftige, eher herbe Frucht, jugendliches, aber mürbes Tannin, nachhaltig am Gaumen, gewisse Tiefe, zedrige Nuancen und wieder Gewürze, etwas erdig im Hintergrund, sehr guter, herb-saftiger und würziger Abgang mit animierendem Biss. Erstklassig.
