Note di degustazione
Pale ruby-purple. Touch of reduction, but a nose currently led by nutty, clove oak, then ripe strawberry fruit and some rocks. Racy acidity gives a marked sour-cherry character. Chalky, moderate tannins look angular at the moment. Perhaps this will come together with time, as there’s fair length, but it’s quite hard work right now. (TJ)

Julian Huber's 2015 Bienenberg Spätburgunder GG shows a lovely, vital ruby red color and opens a bit reductive still, with a clear, fresh and well-defined bouquet of red fruits, crushed stones and spicy and floral aromas. It is a full-bodied, firm, fresh and finessed Pinot Noir with a serious tannin structure and persistent vitality. This is a terribly clear and precise Pinot, and the finish is really cleansing and stimulating. Tasted at the "VDP Grosses Gewächs" presentation in Wiesbaden, August 2017.
Some density and interest on the nose but a slightly worrying coffee note. Quite marked acidity. Not a comfortable drink at this point. Pinched. But of course it may blossom, as the late Bernhart Huber's wines were wont to do, into something quite special. Is it just much more youthful than most of its peers? (JR)
