2013 Bürgstadt Centgrafenberg Pinot Noir trocken, Franconia/Franken, Germany

Somewhat developed, rather tart aroma of more red than black berries with tobacco and undergrowth notes, some mushrooms, pepper, dried flowers and a hint of tar in the background. Ripe, juicy fruit with nutty, tobacco and peppery-spicy tones, some smoke on the palate, wood barrel notes, lively acidity and relatively taut tannin, good persistence, mineral tones, some depth, has power but also life and a certain freshness, very good, firm, tangy and spicy finish with very slight old woody bitterness. Has completely recovered after an interim low in 2018 and is now better than ever.
