Pfarrwingert Dernau Großes Gewächs Spätburgunder
"Church vineyard." From the upper Ahr, with a higher percentage of slate and greywacke, this is coursing with mineral tension, dark fruit, and fine oak integration on a sturdy medium frame. Winner

Feb 22nd, 2015Loads of exotic spices, some floral notes, dried herbs & tomato sauce with black cherries. A very interesting nose. Loads of exotic spices, with some black cherries, medium acidity, lots of minerals, some grippy tannins, pronounced alcohol & some oak on the finish. Slightly disjointed at this moment. Needs time to come together in the cellar. Will finish the rest tomorrow. 2nd day was pure bliss!
