Needed like 1 hour to open. Very nice nose showing tobacco, ash, red fruits, still some oak and violets.The palate is super juicy and crunchy with a drying lively finish. While this is not a wow wine it has a lot of nuances that makes it very interesting and appealing. I like it more the more I drink it, 93.

Very nice terroir driven German Spätburgunder. Smoke, herbs, spices, earth, stones, sour cherry and oak. The oak and tannins still could be a bit more integrated but otherwise this wine is drinking very well. Solid 92.

My best guess is the bottle was flawed or shut down in a horrible way. No fruit. The palate astringent, acidic and tannic nothing more. Decanted put back in fridge and tried next day, same. I hope my remaining bottles are better. Not rated.
