Translate to English Herber, ganz leicht getrocknet-pflanzlicher und erdiger Duft nach schwarzen Beeren und ein wenig Kirschen mit altholzigen und tabakigen Nuancen. Recht herb auch im Mund, dunkle Frucht mit erdigen und ganz leicht an Wurzelgemüse erinnernden Notren, feinsandiges, ganz leicht antrocknendes Tannin, gute Nachhaltigkeit, etwas Wärme, aber auch kühlende Elemente, guter bis sehr guter Abgang.

Editor note: Preserved cherries, black berries and mulberries on the nose, light cedary notes, mineral notes, light spicy and roasted notes. Clear, cool, straightforward style, elegant and juicy dark fruit on the palate, tart spicy oak, chocolate, fairly prominent, quite fine, but slightly astringent tannins, still very young and still quite closed, mineral notes in the background, good finish.
