  Concentrated, full-bodied, vibrant, juicy, fresh, and rich, the wine displays its black, and red currants, blackberries, cigar box, and flowers with only a bit of coaxing. Vibrant, lifted, and energetic, but not overly bright, everything is in balance, with freshness, sweetness, chewy currants, and a savory, peppery-tinted finish that lingers. This is one of those wines that with aging, is a candidate for a higher score in a decade, or so. The wine is a blend of 77% Cabernet Sauvignon with 23% Merlot, 13.2% ABV, 3.6 pH. Picking took place September 11 - September 28. Drink from 2029 - 2060. 93-95 Pts.

  94-96 Punkte. Einmal mehr mit viel Tiefgang, facettenreich, verspielt, komplex; seidige Gerbstoffe umhüllen die Frucht, baut Druck auf, hallt sehr lange nach. Klassisch gebaut. (En Primeur Tasting April 2024)
