Rhini Blauer Spätburgunder
Baden, Germany
Haven’t had in a little over 2 years. Wowza nose. Soppy mid season cherries. Amazing limestone. Some herbs and black and red flowers. So so aromatic. Like a fresh soup of Pinot Noir. Wow. Palate has ripe cherries and is showing much younger than the nose. Lack a skoche of focus but has startling purity, freshness and vivid red cherry fruit slathered in limestone. Awesome length and lovely cherry fruit skin character. Needs a few hours to come together and it will. Will be back.

Nov 3rd, 2022Yes baby. Wowzers. Sick nose. Just exuberant, intense, so floral and fruity. Like wow. Some herbal notes. Chestnuts and roses. Just so deep. So expressive. Gorgeous minerals. Sappy and juicy. So tangy, fresh, deep, incisive, clean and young. But wow long and elite structure. Huge fruit that has top notch clarity. Sour cherries. Like wow sour cherries. Rhini is so slept on. The shortstop of the Ziereisen Pinot lineup. This is the best Rhini I’ve ever had. Bonkers. So elegant and pure. Red Riesling and beyond. This is amazing.

German/Austrian wine night in Great Barrington, MA; 2019.
Ripe cherry, mineral-y raspberry, ripe plum, white pepper, delicious!!! Needs years to settle in.

13.5% ABV.
Perfectly ripe, layered and multi-dimensional on the palate this is seriously good stuff.
Blossoms after 2 hours in the decanter showing so much potency and potential.
I wish I had patience, enough stock and the life expectancy to throw this in with some Burg Grand Cru’s 15+ years down the line but I honestly think this wine is gonna outlive me.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
