Tasting from 16.08.2024: Benjamin Herzog, Dominik Vombach

Ripe fruit aromas on the nose with notes of dried plum, dark wild berries and dried fig. Hints of dark chocolate, some coconut and tonka bean. Powerful and dense on the palate, with lots of dried fruit and balsamic notes. A fresh acidity, good texture, polished tannins, long.
