2022 Rech Herrenberg Frühburgunder VDP.Grosses Gewächs trocken, Ahr, Germany

Festering and deeper, slightly warm, somewhat nutty, leathery and tobacco-like scent of dark berries and a little bit of Amarena cherries with a hint of porcini mushrooms and suggested mocha. Clear, firm, finely juicy fruit with slightly vanilla wood notes, a trace of forest mushrooms and some tar, fine sandy tannin, good substance and sustainability, in the background cigar ash, meat juice and hibiscus-like nuances, has some depth, salty and chalky minerality, herbaceous tones in the very good finish.
