Vintage 2022 | one of the best mood enhancers for weekdays, with lovely raspberries in smell. One of the best entry level wines from Pinot Noir. Paired with Mac and Cheese. — 3 months ago

Vintage 2019 | this bottle survived the ‘Hochwasserfluss’ disaster in 2021. Now at home it tastes even better than in July when we were there. Refinement and elegance. — 10 months ago

My first Spätburgunder. So I'm comparing to the Pinot-I-Know.
On the wonderful nose I get more raspberry than cherry. Slightly floral, but a wild floral and a touch of leather. Really great, unique.
Powerful flavor, not what I expected! The acid hits right away but immediately after you get the raspberry on your tongue that your nose was promising. Rich deep texture, again not what I was expecting from a cold weather pinot noir. Thick, earthy texture, clearly unfiltered. Enjoying the long finish where you can appreciate their use of oak- it really melds so well with the fruit- again think of eating the first ripe raspberries of early summer. — 2 years ago

Vintage 2019 | Tasted blind | This sucks. I tasted this wine twice last six months. It is my cellar. Did not recognize it. It is too young. It suffered from the wine that we tasted next to it, a beautiful pinot noir from North Italy. Light colour. Licorice and caramel. Little sweet touch in the mouth, nice bitters, still strict because of the tannins. Will become a beauty within 3 - 5 years. — 5 months ago

Vintage 2016 | when I bought this in Germany, I asked how long it would last. The Ahr is not known for Riesling, do not keep it too long, was the answer. Wrong answer, imo. This wine is now delicious with awesome sweet/acidity balance. Great! — 8 months ago
