  Die Primärfrucht ist zum größten Teil weg. Ein toller, einzigartiger Duft nach Waldboden, Leder, etwas Eukalyptus und schwarzem Pfeffer. (Im Vergleich zum 2013er Jahrgang, den wir gleichzeitig verkostet haben, wirkt dieser Wein runder, hat aber deutlich weniger Frucht. Beide vom Stil her elegant.)

  Peimeira vez que provo a tal Blaufrankisch, uva tinta da Austria que deveria parecer uma espécie de menage a trois envolvendo Pinot Noir, Syrah e Nebbiolo. Abri um pouco quente, mostrava um defumado potente, e umas notas de torrefação, boca meio desconjuntada, com boa fruta e acidez atrapalhada por taninos meio verdes e alcool sobrando. Foi pro decanter por 2h, devidamente resfriado e mudou muito. Cereja, alcatrão, o defumado ainda lá, só que em segundo plano, junto com pimenta e floral discreto. Médio corpo, cereja e frutas vermelhas, um toque salino, estrutura ainda falando alto. Parece interessante, promissor, mas precisa de tempo. Maior prazer intelectual que sensual.
