Editor note: Translate to English Fester, etwas getrocknet-pflanzlicher bis tabakiger und erdiger Duft nach teils angetrockneten schwarzen Beeren und ein wenig eingelegten Kirschen mit Aromen von getrocknetem Fleisch und Pfeffer, moderater Holzwürze und mineralischen Anklängen. Fest und kräftig im Mund, jugendliche, dicht gewirkte, dunkle, teils eingemacht wirkende Frucht mit kräuteriger Würze, etwas Eukalyptus und Minze sowie schokoladig-röstigen Holznoten, nachhaltig und ziemlich warm am Gaumen, mürbes Tannin, ein wenig Tabak und Lakritz, noch wenig entwickelt, aber schon gewisse Tiefe anzeigend, sehr guter bis langer Abgang mit viel eingemachter reifer Frucht, etwas Trockenkräutern, Lakritz und schokoladig-röstigen Noten.
