Translate to English Recht fester, holzwürziger Duft nach teils eingemachten Kirschen und gemischten Beeren mit kräuterigen, pfeffrigen und leicht teerigen Anklängen. Klare, straffe, saftige Frucht, wieder etwas holzwürzig, feines, eher jugendliches Tannin, zarte Kandistöne im Hintergrund, ein wenig Kräuter und Pfeffer, zart süßlicher Schmelz, aber auch ein animierender Säurebiss, bei aller Kraft bestens balanciert, sehr guter, saftiger Abgang. Hat sich in den letzten Monaten merklich gestrafft.

Editor note: Translate to English Etwas nussig-holzwürziger Duft nach reifen, teils eingemachten Kirschen und überwiegend dunklen Beeren mit leicht erdigen, tabakigen und zedrigen Aromen. Relativ herbe Frucht im Mund, ganz leicht kompottig, nussige und tabakige Holznoten, feines Tannin, gute Nachhaltigkeit, nicht ewig tief, aber harmonisch, relativ weicher Stil, gewinnt mit Luft allerdings an Griff, guter bis sehr guter, saftiger und schokoladig-holzwürziger Abgang.
