Dark and intense nose. Super clear, dark fruit and wonderful clarity. Unreal purity of fruit. Dark berry, cassis, spice, blackberry, blackberry flower, herbs and aromas keep opening and opening, low yields, very ripe, So fresh and energetic. 50% zweigelt, 40% cabernet dorsa and 10% Pinot Noir. So juicy and mineral but also with massive expressive fruit. Nose also has unreal. Likes to keep the wjne in used barrels for more fruit expressions. Great texture and ripe and velvety tannins. Wonderful feel to the tannins. Engaging acidity. Cabernet Dorsa has nothing to do with cabernet. Lemberger and dornfelder. Very long finish. Black berry and black fruits after air and also blackberry licorice. Mint, wild mint. Nose gets more expressive and complex with air. Wet earth starts to develop. Also an appealing bitterness develops after some air. So clean and fresh and finish is awash in minerals.

Jun 16th, 2024From Switzerland. The AOC is Aargau. The blend is Zweigelt/Cabernet Dorsa/Pinot Noir.
What a wackily delicious wine. Nose is mostly darker fruits and stunning clarity backed by intense pepper and wood shavings. Dark berry, white pepper and spice. Awesome aromatics that are restrained and elegant. Palate has perfect blackberry essence and is round, opulent and fresh. Silky and rich. But never overbearing. Incredible balance and purity. Wow this has awesome acidity and powdery tannins and amazing complexity. Long finish. Rock star stuff and an intellectually hedonistic wine.
