Note di degustazione
Morello cherry hauntingly garlanded in buddleia and freesia and tinged with nutmeg and licorice makes for a head-turning aromatic display and anticipates the layered complexity on a brightly juicy, animated, sleek palate. Cherry pit piquancy, stony kisses, and a hint of barrel lend further counterpoint to this promising Pinot’s alluring finish. There were five barriques – or around 125 cases – of this.

Deep garnet with loganberry hue on the rim. A generous and almost-perfumed fragrance unites black cherries, floral aromas, a dusty sprinkling of spice and the merest hint of chocolate. The palate excels in an exercise of complexity and generosity with rich dark fruit being complemented by assertive tannins, juicy acidity and fine mineral components reminiscent of iodine and graphite. Structure and texture are evenly matched to lay the foundation for a truly elegant and sophisticated Spätburgunder. (MS)
The 2014 Frauenberg Spätburgunder GG offers a ripe, yet precise, fresh, well-focused and rather coolish Pinot aroma; it shows some very discreet toast and mocha flavors highlighting the wild blackberry and dark cherry aromas. Full-bodied, ripe and concentrated on the palate, this is an intense and juicy, almost charming Pinot Noir from low yielding vines on limestone bedrock (21 hectoliters per hectare). The finish is intense and powerful, but well structured due to the stems on which the wine fermented for 21 days. The finish is almost sweet, due to the ripeness (a word rarely used 30 years ago in the higher altitudes of the Frauenberg), but is also very fresh and precise; whereas the ripe tannins give the required grip and structure. This is a promising wine with delicate fruit flavors, mineral freshness and probably more power than the Bürgel; but at least at this moment, it maybe has less transparency and finesse.
