March 28, 2020 - As my CT-winefriend from Madrid Harley1199 posted: maldita Cuarentena!
So myself is opening some too young bottles during these times. In normal periods would have let this bottle sleep longer in the cellar!
So pnp in the afternoon on our sunny terrace, initially a strong, but fine nose from the spontaneous fermentation, I do like that, with some aeration this blows off a little, zesty aromas, ocean salt winds, the palate ultrapuristic, razorsharp shark teeth minerality, salty like salt marshes, clean and full of energy, taut indicated grapefruit fruit in the background, long+, demanding and very convincing aftertaste, again a great showing from Bockenau, if you got some more bottle of this vintage and you like this style, just try and enjoy one like me today! Easily going strong for the next decade(++), highly recommended! *(****), 96-98(+) potential
Update 24 hours later: more structured now, the fermentation aromas totally blown off, clearly creamy grapefruit in the foreground, but again, this energy, tension and enormous lenght, extraordinary showing!5 people found this helpful 4,657 views
