Tasting Notes
Timo Mayer’s approach to Cabernet is far from traditional. Using 100% whole-bunch fermentation, this wine offers a vibrant, aromatic, and savory expression that defies expectations for the variety.
The 2024 vintage benefits from a warm, consistent ripening season, adding a bit more richness to the wine. The nose is dominated by dark fruit, crushed herbs, and subtle hints of tobacco, while the palate is smooth, plush, and structured, with fine tannins and a mineral graphite finish.
Unlike classic Cabernets, which often rely on oak for structure, this wine derives its framework from the skins, stems, and seeds, resulting in a fresher, more accessible drinking experience.
