Weingut Bernhard Huber
Alte Reben Spätburgunder
Still young and takes a bit to open up... now getting black cherry, forest floor, ash, and lavender. Highish acid. In terms of body in the Spatburgunder realm, this is quite Amazonian. Not a meek wine by any standards, but still poised and elegant.

Jan 1st, 2018Raise a glass we list Bernhard this year. One of the best Pinot noir producers in the world just happened to be German from Baden. Wonderful distinct earth on the nose black spices and smoke raspberry and cherry fruit. Concentrated and rich vvety texture wow very fresh with lots of spice on the finish. Most excellent!!
