Frühburgunder

New one from Thorle. A favorite grape. Nose is all violets and spices. Tweed jacket and wool as well. So unique. Superb minerality and earthiness. Love the nose here. Not sure how much Rheinhessen Fruh I’ve actually had. Not much if any.

Palate is sweet and silky with terrific purity, concentration and sap. Very very nice. Violets, red cherries and some blackberries as well. Really great sweetness and ripe tannins. Terrific wine and value. Really wonderfully textured and so elegant. This bats way way above its class.
