The aroma is full-bodied and typical of the vineyard: blackberries, blueberries, sour cherries, with hints of raspberry and yoghurt, sweet spices and marzipan.
There is a nice harmony, ethereal purity, exciting acidity, excellent tannins, a round body and a long finish. On the palate, the fruit, spices and marzipan are also present, with a slight chalky grip.
