Weingut Roterfaden
Württemberg Trocken Lemberger
Württemberg, Germany
Wine 5/12 (Lemberger vice versa Blaufränkisch)
Nose has under-ripe black cherry, moist Granitic soil, cherry reduction sauce and wood smoke
Palate has plum skin, tart blueberry, blackberry with minor minerality, light acidity, medium tannins and a medium finish.
Best Lemberger I've had, a very nice effort!
Once again it is notable that I have made one full trip around the Sun earlier this week. We had our small, social bubble team to the house for celebrating my getting older and somewhat less flexible in advancing age...Whatever will be done when I creast 50? Well, at least it's several years until needing manage that concern.
We enjoyed well-salted Ribeyes (Kinderhook Farm - Valatie, NY, prepared 48h in advance), turning to a beautiful medium-rare after a mere 12m of grill time and smashed, small red potatoes with capers (yeah try it, don't judge me yet). None of the bottles were particularly planned as 'steak wines'; we didn't care as it really was a wine nerd-fest of grapes/regions, from Burgenland, Austria to Brittany, France. Wine and food were on individual plateaux today. This was the vom Boden Spring Experience case, expertly curated by Stephen Bitterolf, and well received by our tasting crew.

Really cool wine, one of the best German reds I have had in a long time!

No VA here like their 2018 Riesling; just pure joy and excitement.

Lättare vin får man leta efter. Viss naturvinsfunkighet och härligt lättslunket.
