My lord this is so beautiful. Nose is green grass, sage, minerals, lanolin, green apple skins and that unmistakable Franken stoniness. Just stunning and deep aromas. Wow. Penetrates like nothing else! Acid is so amazing and intense. Don’t forget that this is 21 and my goodness those acids are not shy. Palate is so cleansing and pure. Remarkable. Concentred and a mineral blizzard assaults your palate with such unique flavors. The terroir of Rodelsee just shines here. What a wine. More Rodelsee/Weltner than Chardonnay. So impressive but needs air to get to where it was last August.

After 24 hours of air this is firing on all cylinders. Green gage, sage, thyme, lime zest and superb minerality now. Really piquant nose. Lush and mouthfilling but with awesome acidity and linearity. Terrific! — a year ago

Everything you want in a rosé.Crisp, refreshing, opens up as the meal goes on. This got lost in the bday blizzard but was returned to, time and again.
According to Johnson & Robinson @World Atlas of Wine, Rosé accounts for just 1% in Burg, but is a specialty in Marsannay.
I see why. — 2 years ago

A little heat on the nose, but African violets, raspberries and juicy-ripe blackberries, cherry cola, and blueberry pie with hints of fresh mushrooms, cedar, and eucalyptus comes through. Surprisingly light in the body and tannic structure in spite of other clues - it opens with fresh, ripe Queen Anne cherries and July strawberries, immediately giving way to prunes, pot roast and crimini mushrooms, and finishing with anise, green peppers, bitter cocoa. Would be perfect with a molè. — 8 years ago

This is a tight mama! Wrapped up like a child in a blizzard 🥶! Such potential with the black fruit. This needs 10 years more in the bottle or 2 more hours in a decanter! — 5 years ago

Blackberries,dark chocolate, lip smacking tannins. Nose of tobacco. Color purple, that's deep. Like smoke on the water. Good wine to wait out a blizzard — 7 years ago
