This seems a bit “made” and is much better on day 2. Nose has tiny berry fruits and tons of minerals. A talcum powder effect. Floral and foresty. Really aromatic and complex. Very beguiling and unique nose. Palate is a bit dopey, young and very concentrated. Great a balance and freshness. Lovely texture and length but seems like it’s s bit ambitious and less authentic. It’s obviously a very good wine but seems forced I’d say.

Rich and still very young, but made with the Moric elegance and mineral backbone. This will age amazingly.

Balance and deliciousness. Good structure from those 100+ year old vines!

Similar flavors profile as the '12 vintage, just a tad more ripe.

This 2009 starts to show in which direction a matured Top-Blaufränkisch could go.
--> Elegance, grace and harmony

One of Roland Velichs top single vineyard wines. The 2013 shows so much potential under the surface. Red & black fruit paired with tons of herbs, soil and mineral notes. Nearly perfect example of elegant power. Velich said he always is looking for the Balance in the wines.

Absolutely incredible balance. More red berry flavors, and brooding licorice cola spice aromas

I can imagine a Blaufränkisch made by #bedrockmorgan being fashioned in this direction; intensely flavored, rich and pretty wild, yet under strict control.

2006 vintage. This just gets exponentially better with age.
