TASTING NOTE
Havelter Rood 2018
red wine
The wine has an extensive aroma palate with scents of blackberry, prunes, rosemary, pepper, eucalyptus and bay leaves. The bouquet of the wine however promises more, and is more comprehensive, than the taste delivers. The wine is not very complex in its taste and the finish is rather short. Nevertheless, this is a nice and well-balanced glass of red wine.

Detailed Tasting Notes
Wine tasting: 3 Sep 2020
Appearance
A clear, purple-colored wine with a medium+ color intensity. Some legs are visible on the glass.
Nose
The wine has a clean nose, it is developing with a medium+ aroma intensity of forest fruits, cooked red fruit and herbaceous scents. We smell aromas of blackberry, prunes, rosemary, pepper, eucalyptus and bay leaves.
Palate
A dry wine, with medium alcohol, medium+ acidity and medium- tannins. The wine is medium-bodied with a medium+ flavor intensity. We taste black and red fruits and herbaceous characteristics with specified flavors of blackcurrant, redcurrants, strawberries, herbs, vanilla and smoke. The wine has an ending of medium- length.
Quality Assessment
This is a good wine; ready to drink now but will not improve with ageing. The bouquet of the wine promises more and is more comprehensive than the taste delivers. The wine is not very complex and the finish is rather short. Nevertheless, this is a nice and well-balanced glass of wine.
