It is a terroir wine that shows density and complexity without losing elegance and finesse. Fewer cassis notes - rather dark, ripe berry fruits, also cherry aromas, and spicy notes play the keyboard. Very well-integrated tannins, including those from the aging process, provide it with long aging potential. It is a type that goes very well with grilled meat or roasts and can also become a soloist for wine geeks.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Markus Schneider","offers":[{"title":"1 bottle","offer_id":51377397956948,"sku":"","price":23.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/9325\/0597\/files\/Design_ohne_Titel_75.png?v=1739455846"},{"product_id":"cabernet-sauvignon-und-malbec","title":"Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"153\" data-end=\"224\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis offer is valid from March 26th to April 30th\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"153\" data-end=\"224\"\u003eWines are best tasted side by side!
