Information on maturation

The wine matured predominantly in 300 liters Austrian oak casks (1st and 2nd fillings) for 18 months. Assemblage is made from selected barrels according to the prospective aging potential of their content. With appropriate cellaring this wine should keep another decade or longer.

Juvenile bouquet of forest berries, cherries and currant, with a touch of lilac, vanilla, noble wood and spices (sandal, cinnamon, pepper).

Taste

Soft and dry entry, then instantly juicy and fresh, the fruit is persistent and well tamed, black cherries and mashed red berries, medium body while tightly structured, showing delicate tannins, spicy and slightly toasty with the multilayered fruit following through to a surprisingly long finish.

Food recommendation

Matches with venison, lamb, roast beef, roast duck or goose etc.
