Tasting Notes

This wine is a vibrant expression of its terroir, showcasing a deep purple color with aromas of bay leaves, liquorice, cherry tobacco, and dark berry fruits. Matured in French second and third fill barrels for 14 months, it offers a structured palate with rich dark fruit flavors, balanced acidity, and well-integrated tannins. The finish is long and elegant, reflecting both power and finesse, making it a flagship expression of Lozärn’s estate.
