2015 Blauer Spätburgunder Landwein, Baden, Germany

Rather astringent, a hint of bacon-like scent of more red than black berries with herbaceous, peppery and mineral notes. Clear, polished and rather cool, finely juicy red fruit, very fine tannin and some bite, good persistence, a hint of citrus zest in the background, herbal traces, in the background also mineral notes, very slightly raspy and tobacco notes, has freshness, good to very good, finely juicy and mineral finish.
