Translate to English Fester, beinahe kühl wirkender, fein-vegetabiler Duft mit zurückhaltenden, eher herben gelbfruchtigen Aromen und kräuterig-pflanzlichen Nuancen. Reife, schmelzige Frucht, kraftvoll und warm, vegetabile und kräuterig-ätherische Aromen, etwas Griff und sehr feine Säure, nachhaltig am Gaumen, ein wenig nussig und angedeutet Floral, steinig-mineralische Töne im Hintergrund, gute Tiefe, ein wenig Aprikose, sehr guter, alkoholmächtiger Abgang mit reifem Saft, Griff und Kräuter-Ätherik. Immernoch fit, auch wenn der Alkohol inzwischen ordentlich durchschlägt.
