2018 Dalsheim Bürgel Spätburgunder Grosses Gewächs trocken, Rheinhessen, Germany

Clear, polished fragrance of ripe red and hinted also black berries with delicate floral aromas, a touch of cherries, very fine spicy tones and a hint of tobacco in the background. Cool, finely juicy, very smooth fruit with a delicate acid bite and very fine tannins, very slightly nutty and wood-spicy nuances on the palate, persistent, certain depth, elegant style, chalky mineral tones in the background, a tiny hint of bacon and citrus zest, very good, tight, cool, fine juicy finish with herbal nuances
