Description
The embodiment of our preference for Pinot: an elegant yet fruity wine, juicy on the palate with nice volume and good length.
2020
At first, yellow stone fruit and minerality from the volcanic soil of Siefersheim dominate the varietal aromas until, with a little air and/or aging, the full bouquet of pear and subtly nutty nuances unfolds. The nose shows ripe mirabelles, pears and yellow apple, but also spicy aromas. In the mouth, apricot and tangerine are typical of the variety. Juicy, with clear contours and a harmonious finish.
2021
The 21er Weißburgunder presents itself like a good jazz singer: not obtrusive, but present. Elegant, almost graceful, sometimes smokily tart when it matters. Adapted to the mood, the ambience, the food, but no deviation from its own clear style.
On the nose white peach to apricot, walnut to caramel, citrus to white tea. In the mouth again pure elegance, fine fruit, length and juicy mouthfeel. The still slightly prominent acidity points with an outstretched arm to the unmistakable Heerkretz minerality; as it matures, it will certainly draw attention to itself. Simply a great evening accompaniment.
2022
Ripening potential. Sneakk preview to eben better vintage, but best after 2025.
Sommelier’s tip:
We recommend grilled dorado, white meat with kohlrabi or even Asian dishes with a good dose of coriander.
