Damn, the Germans have just laid down a great hand of cards in the Sauvignon Blanc game.
More tropical and spice notes than Loire or NZ, actually, strangely the nose is more similar (yet more elegant and restrained) to the finer North American SBs I've tried. Minerality is medium and hard to pick out a soil type. Acidity is on the lower side.
Flavours follow the nose with pineapple, pear, allspice, Rainier cherry.
I favored the bottle that was open for an hour+. The new bottle gave me a very 2022 sense (ie: a young tart) — 2 months ago

When in Germany, you drink a lot of lager low alcohol beers but stick to what you know when it comes to wine. The Germans have like 15 types of red wine but in the end it seems you’re always stuck with a bland Pinot noir. — 5 years ago

Moore B tasting of Germans. Just a beautiful still youthful Auslese as Moore regaled with tales of old man in vineyard. — a year ago

After a disappointing evening wine wise the Germans don’t disappoint.

Nose is deep dense blackberries. Some earth. After 30 minutes it gets some crazy savory depth.

Palate is dense blackberries. Some licorice. Round and a brilliant food wine. Very good deliciousness. After 30 minutes more serious. 1er cru serious. More dense. Gods licorice. Longer.

German pinot is the escape hatch for people priced out of burgundy. Don’t look back.

FWIW I’m having with veal tongue with shallots in a basilicata pepper white wine butter sauce.

Wow. This one has been sitting in my fridge for a while and with the weather so warm I decided to open up a rose. I didn’t realize how much I would enjoy this and didn’t realize how truly special and rare this was until I opened my notes (thank you JR!). This is a stunning example of what the Germans can do with Pinot noir. Beautiful harmony throughout. Notes of rose pedal that will knock your socks off. Just 75 cases produced. — 5 years ago
