Spätburgunder

Fruit aromas are the most common and come directly from the grape, ranging from citrus through stone fruit to black berries.

Herbal aromas can be finely aromatic (sage) or grassy – a stylistic feature in some varieties, ripeness indicator in others.

Spicy aromas often emerge from oak aging (vanilla, clove) or with maturity (black pepper).

Tertiary aromas that develop with bottle aging – typical of mature top wines.
