This red wine under the famous Kleinbabylonstoren `Black label` is a specially crafted cuvee on the basis of varietal intensity and character. Released with good bottle age to match similar blends from Bordeaux this exceptional red wine has notes of violets, cassis and dried herb aromas. On the palate there is an intense forward flavour of blackberry, cinnamon and vanilla which is beautifully balanced with hints of vanilla from ageing in oak barrells. Although rich and instantly appealing, it has classic structure and supple tannins and a delicious ripe smooth balanced complexity.
