Tasting Notes
In the glass “Cultus 2017” is limpid, almost brilliant, of a very intense ruby red color with slight nuances of garnet color, consistent.
The nose reveals aromas of red, rose and peony flower petals. Addictive notes of small red berries, nuances of cherries in alcohol follow; balsamic and spicy nuances complete the range of perfumes. Aftertaste reminiscent of licorice root.
On the palate, an important, but not invasive, tannic texture emerges. Warm and enveloping the sip, balanced in its components, the lively freshness anticipates a long and persistent finish of ripe fruit. Elegant and fine quality sample.
It is recommended in combination with baked rabbit with potatoes and mushrooms.

Rating: 91/100
