Critic Reviews

93 / 100 – Adrian van Velsen (vvWine.ch, Nov 2023)
“Kräftiges Rubinrot. Expressive und mineralisch geprägte Nase, deutlich Stein, Asphalt nach Sommerregen, ein Hauch von Karton, darunter dunkle Frucht und auch zitrishe Noten und etwas Karamel, sehr komplex. Im Gaumen saftig und frisch, viel Würze hier, top feines Tannin, gut verpackte Säure, die Frucht ist knackig und wird von der Struktur in Schach gehalten. Langer, saliner Abgang mit rotfruchtigen Rückaromen. 2025–2040.”

“Strong ruby red colour. Expressive and minerally-driven nose, with clear notes of stone and asphalt after summer rain, a hint of cardboard, dark fruit beneath, as well as citrus notes and some caramel — very complex. On the palate, juicy and fresh, with plenty of spice, very fine tannins, well-integrated acidity; the fruit is crisp and held in check by the structure. Long, saline finish with red-fruited aftertaste. Drink 2025–2040.”
