“Kardinal” Barrique 2015

Description

Cuvée aus Cabernet Sauvignon, Roesler und Syrah

Kardinal counts to one of our big creation of Winery Kummer. Dark red colour with a black core. Its aroma is of dark berries with a slight roasting taste. It’s a full-bodied win with great tannins – lightly spicy and a light taste of bitter chocolate with a long and gentle finishing

Kardinal was indeed the creation and start-off of my father in 1999. It’s our oldest and first blend. It’s always a combination of 3 or 4 varieties but not dedicated any fixed varieties

Each vintage – this blend – is consisting of the 3 best harmonized varieties of the latest harvest

The wine is maturing for 12 months in a small oak barrel – with a break down of 1/3 new wood, 1/3 second filling and 1/3 third filling
