Klare, saftige, geschliffene, teils eingemacht wirkende Frucht im Mund, rauchig-röstiges Holz, feines Tannin,m Schmelz am Gaumen, Kraft, aber keine Schwere, gute Nachhaltigkeit, noch ziemlich jung, nicht ewig tief und komplex, aber sehr sorgfältig gemacht, kräuterige und mineralische Anklänge, guter bis sehr guter Abgang.

Fairly juicy on the palate, slightly jammy mixed berries and cherries, partly dried herbs, caraway, some dark chocolate, some toasted oak and smoked bacon, fairly full-bodied, polished, good persistence, mineral notes in the background, good finish.
