Perfect example of the difference between a Pinot about and a Spätburgunder. This is the latter - light & herby with damson plums, woodland flowers and a touch of undergrowth. Juicy and light on the palate with fruity acidity and some light tannins. Great with food, good for sipping solo. A nice effort. — 5 years ago
Almost has the fruity nose of a Beaujolais - some of that popping fresh red fruit and a hint of bubblegum.
Nice balance on the tongue of tart ripe fruit and acid. Some oak to give it all a little sense of maturity. — 6 months ago
Vintage 2020 | Flint, strawberry, sweet plum. This wine has the swallow-factor, beautiful concentration, soft first impression, elegance. Definitely: like! Very balanced wine. Winefriend @Berry Marinussen gave a big compliment, the wine made him think of Burgundy - “I would not recognize this wine as German spätburgunder” — 9 months ago
Butterscotch on the nose, skirts unctuously around the reaches of the mouth, raspberry cordial and lawn. Delicious. — 6 years ago
The slightest tint of rosé in the glass. Smells like the better qualities of champagne- roses and grapefruit pith. Refreshing acidity and tartness (too much tartness for the American pallette?) and there is no denying that minerality. For my friend Shin there are even 'hints of strawberry' in the long finish.
I have a real soft spot for the Ahr regions slate wines. And all for €11 a bottle. — a year ago

So earthy! I smell red cherry tree sap or bark, candy cap mushroom.
Surprisingly austere and tannic fine tannins light in the mouth, but it's also comforting in a similar way that good scotch is comforting after it goes down. — 2 months ago
