Note di degustazione
TA 4.8 g/l, RS 0.2 g/l. Pale ruby-garnet. Very perfumed nose that leaps from the glass. Slightly rhubarby with cinnamon and some herbal notes. Those Chambolle-like aromatics persist on the palate and lift the wine. Delicate tannins, with some herbal notes suggestive of stems in the ferment, alongside plenty of cranberry and wild strawberry, but underpinned by a flinty, stony mineral quality. Floral-laced finish, that just goes on and on. Gets more and more glorious in the glass! (TJ)

The 2018 Spätburgunder Hunsrück GG is incredibly pure, fresh and spicy on the deep, intense and untamed nose that delivers perfectly refreshing greenishness from the skins and stems, which add herbal and leafy notes. The palate is well concentrated yet pure, straight and fresh, with great intensity and finesse along with firm tannins. The finish is complex and very long. This is a great German Pinot Noir from colored sandstone soils.
If the Centgrafenberg is the intellectual sibling, its Hundsrück brother has worked out in the Bürgstadt gym, developing a more pronounced fragrance, concentrated flavour and muscular body. The generous vintage of 2018 has supplied it with intense fruit, notes of cassis, blackcurrant and plum embracing the taste buds with vigour. This does not mean that it is one-dimensional, there are vegetal, spicy and smoky nuances too. But with an abundance of juice, even the strapping tannins have to work hard to get a grip. Majestic.
