Appearance: Ruby-red color with subtle garnet edges; medium to full body and crystal clarity.
Aroma: Intense and elegantly floral nose: roses, a hint of vanilla, spices, caramel, and in the final layers a slight note of wormwood (absinthe), with a touch of toasted wood.
Taste: Full and robust body, yet elegantly structured; ripe fruit (sour cherry, cherry, dark berries), spices, mineral undertone, and a gentle sweetness of vanilla. The tannins are silky and pleasantly smooth.
Finish: Long-lasting, harmonious aftertaste with balanced fruity, spicy, woody, and mineral impressions. The wine is elegant yet structurally strong – ready to enjoy now, with optimal maturation until the 2040s.
