Translate to English Fester, recht tiefer, eher herber, feinwürziger Duft mit ruhigen, reintönigen gelbfruchtigen Aromen, nussigen Tönen und deutlicher Mineralik. Sehr klar, dicht und saftig im Mund, feiner Schmelz und sehr feine Säure, zart nussige und hefige Aromen am Gaumen, eine Spur Fenchel, im Hintergrund Mineralik, sehr nachhaltig am Gaumen, Schmelz und mittlere Kraft, aber auch Eleganz, animierende Würze, Mineralik im Hintergrund, gewisse Tiefe, beste Balance, in sich ruhend und dennoch anregend, ziemlich komplex, sehr guter bis langer Abgang mit nussigen und hefigen Aromen. In prächtiger Form und dabei noch eher jung; von uns vor zwei Jahren leicht unterschätzt, obwohl er uns da schon begeisterte.
