Color
Purple red with violet reflections and black core.
Nose
Clear wood notes make the prelude and form at the same time the olfactory frame for the spectacle. Vanilla notes mix with black cherries, blackberries and plum jam, allspice and black pepper. A delicate smoky note hovers over everything, as well as cinnamon blossoms and elderberries. All of this is spicily flanked by Mediterranean herbs like thyme and savory. Whether now or in 10 years The decanter is indispensable.
Mouth
Grown on vines over 60 years old, it combines power and finesse even on the palate. After sufficient aeration, the extract-sweet fruit becomes the gustatory leitmotif, always flanked by a present use of wood, which fuels the flow and speed just as much as the fine acidity. Notes of licorice and blueberry pulp mingle with cool mineral impressions that make the wine always seem different, as if in a kaleidoscope. Very tidy despite everything. For now or in many years.
