Perfumed black fruits make this wine immediately attractive. On the palate, there is some richness, black plums and spice, along with sultanas. The acidity is kept in good check, but certainly adds piquancy and freshness to the aftertaste.

A peppery wine, all spice, nutmeg and black pepper. The tannins are tight, slightly green, but the juiciness is all there. Very fresh, very fruity.

On the nose this is classic Bordeaux, the dusty black currant and tight fruit very obvious. This is a lean wine, with a core of dry tannins, but there is definite black currant juice freshness, the wine showing high finishing acidity.

V.T.S. stands for Vintage Top Select, the prestige cuvee from Hans Moser. It’s an eclectic blend of every grape imaginable, from Cabernet Sauvignon to Syrah, by way of Zweigelt and Blaufränkisch. What you get is a superrich wine that’s beginning to mature, with dark plum jelly and sweet black fruit flavors. It is ripe and concentrated, just finishing with some firmness.

V.T.S.? Vintage Top Select is the name of this blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Blaufränkisch, Zweigelt, Merlot and Syrah. Quite a collection, but the result is a finely polished wine, new wood topping a concentrated, lightly jammy texture, which has richness and good ripe redfruit flavors. A finishing bitterness, which needs to soften out, is the only downside here.

It’s obvious from the alcohol that the Merlot here was very ripe. But, happily, it doesn’t taste that way. The balance of rich raisin and red plum flavors are well balanced by acidity. There is some smokiness from wood, the ripeness finishing freshly with a black cherry taste.

A relatively neutral Chardonnay, one that shows some smooth red apple flavors, a light touch of vanilla and an open texture. Ready for drinking now.

A rounded style of Sauvignon Blanc, but one that doesn’t lose sight of its herbaceous element. So there is crispness, a vivacious acidity, but also flavors of creamy apple and ripe pear. To drink this year.

The aromas are of new wood and spice. But the red cherry flavors of Blaufränkisch are enough to absorb this wood, giving a spicy but fruity wine that happily fills the glass with ripe fruit.
