VINUM: "Offen, rotfruchtig, Sauerkirsche, angekohltes Holz; frischer Gaumen, delikate Frucht, feinkörniges Tannin, zeigt Eleganz, Dynamik und ein frisches, salines Finale. Besticht einmal mehr mit Finesse statt mit Kraft."

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Chocolate, flowers, black cherries, plums, spice, truffle, and licorice nuances open the nose. On the palate, the wine is soft, polished, fresh, dark, and chewy, with chalky, dark red pit fruits, along with touches of orange rind, espresso, and cocoa on the backend. Give this just a few years, and it will be fully ready-to-go. The wine blends 74% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 8% Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink from 2027-2042. 13.5% ABV."
