2009 Spätburgunder trocken Sophia, Baden, Germany

Ruby to fawn brown. Nutty-woody and somewhat malty aroma of more red than black berries with tobacco and earthy notes. Relatively firm, somewhat developed fruit with a certain acid bite and nutty, tobacco and slightly smoky wood spice, good substance and persistence, has power, malty traces, some coffee, clear minerality in the background, besides ripe tones interestingly also certain freshness, persistent, some depth, good to very good, slightly drying and woody finish with hints of malt and again also minerality. From the magnum.
