Violet, cherry, a bit of an earthy thing too. As usual this is nice and inviting. The palate is great with a nice cherry note all along and a spicy note, a great acid drive, a nice width with a vivid, dynamic mouthfeel. There is a bit of a tannic feeling, very subtle, in midpalate which disrupts nicely the overall drive of the palate and helps creating a very nice, a little complex, finish with cherry, this spicy note and violet too. This is again great! (but I'm not impartial here 😊)

There is an irony thing in the nose along with violet and rose petals and cherry and a bit of black pepper. This is the nose I fell in love with 10 years ago. The palate is very well designed with a strong acid backbone, a very nice round and radiating fruit, a bit of a sweet touch, some nice oily, scratchy tannins which kick things up for a rather long finish with that fruit, pepper and a long lasting floral aftertaste. So great. This is 7 Euro when you buy it from the winery directly and it's 15 kilometers from where I am right now 😍
