The best Regent in Germany? I think so! Rich nose of cassis, raspberry, raspberry coulis, wild mint, exotic spice. Wet earth and extraordinary minerality. Love Max with serious red grapes that are heavy-ish. He does wonders also with Merlot. Palate is fresh, rich and dynamic. Amazing fruit density and purity. Wow some major tiny berry fruit intensity. Unreal sweetness and velvety tannins. Really sleek and well made. Liquid red velvet cake. Awesome concentration and freshness. For a wine this rich it’s remarkably fresh. Love this.
UPDATE: Beautiful nose today. Great improvement overnight. Floral, complex. Spacious. The huge fruit is not as intense and it’s really pretty. Palate is structured and deep. Really fine. Really elegant. Clean. This has vastly improved. 9.4 now.

Raging Regent! What a nose. Brambly wild berries, gorgeous minerality and such purity. Lovely smokiness as well. Palate is so juicy and really has picked up elegance in the last two years. Soft but vivid and clear. Superb sweet fruit. Sappy. Fruit is red and such a wonderful precise sweetness and lovely long finish. Really nice opulence here. A fruit bomb but so civilized. After some air the tannins become more prominent but still such a sexy and refined wine.

Feb 23rd, 2022This is 100% Regent. What a nose. Dark berry fruit. Spice. Hint of moss. Crazy aromas. Deep. But also hard to identify. Thanks, Regent! Palate is insanely juicy, pure and clean. Thunderous freshness and wow that purity. The palate is so bright and has insane lift to it plus just superb balance. What a wine. So so stunning. Ripe, velvety and substantial tannins and terrific length. This is truly great. Plum. Dark berries. Hint of spicey oak and finishes with insane spice. Gorgeous wine.
