2015 Spätburgunder, Baden, Germany

Reductive, somewhat animalistic and vegetable nose with slightly sourish aromas of preserved mixed berries and cherries, tobacco, bark and earthy notes. Tart and slightly rough on the palate, cherry and berry fruit, vegetal notes, still slightly yeasty, also nutty, earthy and with spicy oak, a little cardamom, good persistence, has bite, also noticeably gains in juice with juice, medium potency, too in the good finish a little rough. Should still mature.
