The 2023 Kerner Praepositus opens with an almost tropical aromatic profile, layered with minty herbs, kiwi, green melon, and subtle sweet spice. The palate is rich yet refined, driven by ripe orchard fruit and candied citrus notes that glide across a silky texture. Bright acidity brings lift and energy, while a pronounced mineral streak adds tension and structure through the long, focused finish. Lingering hints of fresh mint leave a vibrant final impression.
