2020 Weißburgunder VDP.Gutswein trocken "KL", Pfalz, Germany

Festy, dense, and quite deep, smoky and nutty core fruit aroma with citrus notes, fine cabbage leaves, tobacco, a bit of crab meat, marinated chicken, and forest mushrooms. Ripe, firm, juicy fruit with smoky and nutty wood notes, a touch of fresh butter, and again cabbage leaves, lively, fine acidity, persistent on the palate, has inner strength but no heaviness, a bit of dark ethereal spice in the background, chalky-salty minerality, citrus segments, hinted pineapple, and a touch of curry, persistent, with some depth, very good, juicy, and finely spiced finish, again with grip. Can still age.
