The thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge. You, who so well know the nature of my soul, will not suppose, however, that I gave utterance to a threat. At length I would be avenged; this was a point definitively settled — but the very definitiveness with which it was resolved precluded the idea of risk.

I must not only punish but punish with impunity. A wrong is unredressed when retribution overtakes its redresser. It is equally unredressed when the avenger fails to make himself felt as such to him who has done the wrong. It must be understood that neither by word nor deed had I given Fortunato cause to doubt my good will. I continued, as was my wont, to smile in his face, and he did not perceive that my smile now was at the thought of his immolation.

The wines at a glance

Symbols
The rating of the wine reflects the mean value from a tasting by our jury.
The wine was evaluated in a blind tasting.
The wine was tasted as a barrel sample or before an official test number (Amtliche Prüfungsnummer or Staatliche Prüfnummer) was issued.
The wine exhibited a sensory abnormality during our tasting. This does not necessarily have to be a qualitative defect or a wine fault. In the case of a qualitative impairment, a devaluation or rejection was made depending on the type and severity of the defect or wine fault.

Pale yellow. Delicately spicy, planty and youthful scent of melon, still marked by the primary fruit. On the palate with creaminess on the one hand, but also with a ripe, vital acidity as a tension curve. Good length.

Greyish yellow with delicate rosé. In the nose with fine wood spice and scent of roasted hazelnut, yellow and green apple. Powerful and creamy on the palate, yet refreshing, vital and not satiating. Very well balanced. Excellent length.

Slightly cloudy cherry red with medium transparency. Fine, cool fragrance of red berries, mainly raspberry. On the tongue with a sweetish fruit component and fine- to coarse-grained tannins, which seem a little brittle at first, but harmonise on the breath. The elegance keeps the upper hand. Good length.
