TASTING NOTES

Dark cherry red with a black core and a violet tinge at the rim. Wonderful spectrum of dense and strong fragrances, ripe heart cherries, dried plums, mountain cranberries, fine blackberry confit, wonderful steppe herbs, orange zest, eucalyptus, nuances of cinnamon and cloves as well as fine roasted aromas. The full power of Zweigelt unfolds on the palate – wonderfully dense, smooth, rich in finesse and powerful, juicy fruit of black cherries, underlaid by a little mint, delicate touch of figs, roasted plums, delicate herbal spiciness, fleshy, full-bodied, fresh and slightly salty minerality, milk chocolate, pronounced tannin grip, fine roasted aromas, wonderful fruit sweetness, remains on the palate forever and is very profound. This splendid interpretation of Zweigelt makes the tasting a special kind of wine experience.
