From old vines cultivated at the bottom of the slope and younger yet not very young vines in the crus, the 2022 Spätburgunder Bürgstadter opens with a delicate, very fine, bright and rather floral bouquet of fleshy red and dark fruits intermingled with spicy-mineral and even crunchy stone and iodine notes. Silky, lush and very elegant on the palate, this is a full-bodied, tightly structured, fresh and concentrated Pinot with remarkable intensity, firm and spicy but finely grained tannins and a long, refreshing mineral finish. It was bottled in early March this year after 17 months on the lees. Drink Date: 2026 - 2035
