Nose:
The expressive and inviting bouquet features aromas of blackcurrant, ripe cherry and blackberry. Subtle hints of violet, dark chocolate and spice are complemented by a touch of herbal freshness, giving the wine added depth and complexity.

Palate:
The palate is juicy and well-defined, with an elegant interplay of ripe fruit and smooth tannins. Leading the way are blackberry and dark cherry flavours, followed by subtle notes of plum, spice and a touch of cocoa. A fresh line of acidity gives the wine lift and clarity and the smooth, supportive tannins carry it into a dry, balanced lingering finish.

Best Drinking:
This Cuvée Rouge is drinking well now and will continue to develop positively over the next 2–4 years. Short- to mid-term cellaring will further enhance complexity and integration.

Wine Makers Notes:
This Cuvée Rouge was created with a focus on balance, purity and elegance. Gentle handling of the fruit and careful fermentation allow the wine’s natural depth and structure to unfold without overpowering the palate. A short period of maturation brings harmony and refinement, resulting in a dry red wine that captures the expressive yet approachable style of Rheinhessen.
