November 3, 2016 - Blind tasting of wines from Northern Rhône. First signs of maturity. Most striking bouquet of the evening, with feral notes, barnyard, olive tapenade, graphite, old leather, pumpernickel, licorice, sweetish fruits and some raw meat. Medium-bodied, noticeable and adstringent tannins, and good drive due to the wine’s still lively acid. Flavors of cherries, gingerbread, plums, leather, licorice and fine wood on the palate. Long-lasting finish. Still quite fresh despite the partially more matured flavor profile.
Blindverkostung Nördliche Rhône. In der Nase erkennbar erste Reifenoten. Auffallend animalische Noten, stallig, Oliventapenade, Graphit, altes Leder, Pumpernickel, Lakritz, süßliche Früchte und etwas rohes Fleisch. Im Mund mit mittlerem Körper, guter, trinkanimierenden Säure und präsenten, adstringierenden Tanninen. Aromen von Kirschen, Pfefferkuchen, Pflaumen, Leder, Lakritz und Holz am Gaumen. Langer Abgang. Wirkt noch recht frisch trotz der Reifenoten.2 people found this helpful 2,338 views
