Community Tasting Notes (8) Avg Score: 92.7 points

  • Decanted. Initially, tart cranberries, herbs, and moderate volatile acids. Now 2.5h after decant, mild balsamic aromas with flowers, cranberries and tart cherries. Palate w tart cherries and mild cranberries, herbs, flowers, and bark. Fantastic acids. Light bodied w elegant texture and very mild tannins. So lively, juicy, full of life and character. Time and air definitely helps to bring the wine into balance. Agree w MartyL - needs 2 - 3 h of air for the wine to come together. The last sip at 3 h after decant was the best. I still think that the wine would benefit w more age to bring the wine into better harmony. Open the last bottle in 3-5 yrs.

  • Consistent with previous note. As it warms in the glass and gets some air, the tartness recedes a bit and more of the fruit and floral aromas emerge. I'd suggest giving this an hour or two in the decanter.

  • Poor showing tonight. Nose and palate were both quite tired. There’s also a weighty acrylic thing going on - alcohol pushed too high? Totally different from my last bottle.

  • This is really good...Roses dominate the nose with scents of earth and tomato leaf. The palate is lithe and as tight as the body of a gymnast. There's a tartness and a hint of green on the palate that seems like there may have been some stem inclusion. This is a light-bodied, high acid, vision of beauty with what can be done with Pinot Noir in Germany...while this is quite lean and might be considered as austere by some on the palate. It offers up a promise of what can be achieved in Germany with this beautiful grape...

  • Tasting group with German theme. Smacked with acetone and then more acetone on first sniff. After about 1.5h, acetone recedes into the background but never goes away. What's left is a light bodied, almost austere palate of sour cherries, herbs, green stemminess and minerals. Poor showing on this day.
