Az. Agr. Baron Widmann (Andreas Baron Widmann)
Südtiroler Vernatsch
Roasted beets, allspice, porcini, freshly-turned earth, roast squab juices. Explosively aromatic and engaging, with an ethereally fine texture and incredible freshness and length on the palate. A haunting and evocative presence here that few 12.5% alcohol modern reds can manage. The only comparisons that come to mind are old Bize Savignys. I now understand why so many experts believe Andreas Widmann to be Italy’s greatest grape grower.
