Always a wonderful wine. Nose is soppy red cherries, limestone, herbs and all presented in a super subtle way. Gorgeous wet earth under. Palate is all red fruits, citrus and tons of tanginess and freshness. Great acids and form, powdery tannins. Needs some time but the length and purity are all there for my score to go higher. Tightest young Schulen I can remember. As this airs it gains concentration and explosiveness. Tiny red fruits bursting in your mouth with terrific grip and noble structure. Big tannins. What a wine. Still a 9.3. but I can see 9.4-9.5 with 6-18 hours of air.

Absolutely stunning—we continue to love the emerging generation of Pinot rock stars in Germany. Pine forest, black cherry, tiny red berries, violets, black tea, perfectly integrated oak, so much going on but disappeared fast

Lovely nose of spice, minerals and very exuberant. Black cherry skins and flesh but more skins and mid season red cherries. A lipstick like intensity. Very fresh and vibrant with terrific purity and a lace like texture. Really sappy and such great acidity. Red Riesling for the win. Very long finish. Will open more.

Solid but for the producer, cuvée and vintage, I expected more.

Beautiful, herbs, sage, early season cherries, huge spice, sweet and spicey, amazingly high toned, juicy and linear with terrific energy. Tart, but in a great way. So happy and structured. Amazing acidity. In tune with the fruit. Clings on the backend.

What a nose. Singing! Huge red cherry fruit. So perfumed. Floral. A hint of earth and some mesmerizing spice. A nose one can smell over and over and over. It’s just insane. Juicy and complex with stunning acidity and freshness and a lacey, lean, silken structure. So elegant and such fine fine tannins. Amazingly long finish with awesome acidity and brilliant balance. Just a stunning, stunning wine. Such sweetness and sappiness all at the same time. Amazingly pure. While very good now this has a bright future.

Elegant and certainly fragrant with nice light yet intense body and sweetness. Wonderful spice and purity. Round yet also straight as an arrow. Great wine.

Ridiculously well made. Crystalline and transparent, yet dense. Wafting aroma, pink peppercorn. Stony red fruit.
