A full-bodied, extractive wine with a dark ruby colour, which gradually opens up in its expression and is thus intended for prolonged contemplation. The sweetly fruity and spicy aroma is dominated by notes of prune and blackcurrant, complemented by subtle hints of vanilla and tobacco. On the palate it has velvety tannins and aromas of dark forest fruits with a predominant trace of blackcurrant. The wine is very well suited to further ageing.

Together with the company Vinice LAHOFER, it cultivates 430 hectares of land, for example on the lines Babičák, U Hájku, Volné pole, Waldberg or Lampelberg.
