La borne by Wittmann is no doubt a great sample of the greatest Morstein terroir. The auction only wines are the most concentrate and intense Wittmann wine. Has the power of Morstein and the steely stony texture from high hill top. Powerful, structured with restriction. 14 is more opening at this stage, compared with 13 and 15, it’s more floral on nose with higher residual sugar.

Compared with 13 and 14, 15 is tighter and deeper at this stage but has so strong power underneath. 15 La borne is a great wine from great vintage.

Full and round with elegant tannin and layers of flavors. Vivid body and fruity balanced the high alcohol quite well. Kind of dry on finish. Well on peak after 15 years of aging. A very price worthy bottle.
