Fabelhaft Tinto 1,5 l Magnum in GP - Niepoort

Fabelhaft Tinto 1,5 l Magnum in GP - NiepoortThe enormously vivid red color of Niepoorter's Fabulous Tinto evokes a medium-density ruby. The lively, fragrant nose convinces with a fresh, deep and very intense aroma of wild fruit. Spice and tea leaf notes marry harmoniously with the balsamic character to produce a complex and gripping aroma. On the palate, it appears elegant, voluminous and youthful with an exceedingly mineral profile. A nice lively acidity and soft, ripe tannins complete the balanced mouthfeel. The long finish delights with an extremely refreshing mineral flavor. Niepoort has chosen the enjoyable story of the raven Huckebein and his bad end, told in wonderful style by Wilhelm Busch, for its red wine. Animal stories are also known as fables and this led to the naming - Fabelhaft - and that's how it tastes!
