  Orange rind, white peach, pineapple and green apples create the nose. There is a touch of salinity that adds to the sweet yellow fruits, honey and green apples in the finish. The wine blends 65% Sauvignon Blanc with 35% Semillon. Drink from 2024-2028.

  Flowers and espresso show, along with ripe plums and crushed rocks in the nose. The palate is even better with its sweet, ripe, salty-edged plums, cherries and spice. Medium-bodied with loads of lift, the vibrant finish is clean and fresh, with ample red fruits and a light touch of cocoa on the backend. Drink from 2024-2036.

  (90-92 vvPunkte) Kräftiges Rubin. Intensive Nase, dunkle und rote Beeren, rauchige Noten, darüber florale Töne, die mich an Veilchen erinnern. Im Gaumen verhältnismässig dicht und konzentriert, erstaunlich druckvoll, jedoch nicht überladen, markante Tannine, fein verwoben mit der Frucht, eine feine Säure schwingt mit, der Wein zeigt Leben und hat Kraft, endet auf einen Mix aus dunklen und roten Beeren. Wird früh Spass machen und kann dennoch reifen. 2026-2040 (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2022. Grand Cercle des Vins de Bordeaux) vvWine.ch

  With deep color, once past the freshly picked floral aromas, you find that the fruits are on the dark red side of the style range, with round textures and a soft, polished, sweet, lively, black raspberry and energetic plum finish. Drink from 2023-2034. 90-92
