Translate to English Fester, kräuteriger, etwas floraler und eine Spur harzig-ätherischer Duft mit zurückhaltenden, hellen gelbfruchtigen Aromen und mineralischen Anklängen. Reife, schmelzige, etwas warme Frucht, sehr reifer Saft, klar und geradlinig, feine kräuterig-vegetabile und florale Aromen, zarter Griff und sehr feine Säure, gute Nachhaltigkeit, hat Kraft, gewisse Tiefe, helle mineralische Töne im Hintergrund, sehr guter, wieder leicht floraler Abgang mit wärmendem Alkohol und viel süßlichem Schmelz. Nicht mehr ganz so beeindruckend wie in seiner Jugend.
