Basked-pressed and aged in large oak casks for 20 month, the 2020 Weisser Burgunder Lügle opens with a very intense and aromatic but elegant and utterly fascinating, slightly flinty nose of perfectly ripe and warm Pinot Blanc fruit. Creamy textured and dense but refreshingly pure, mineral and savory on the palate, this is a medium to full-bodied, concentrated, elegant and still youthful Pinot Blanc with serious tannins that intermingle with the racy acidity and salinity. It's complex yet still a bit austere. This 2020 Pinot Blanc comes into the markets too early; therefore, it should be aerated for about a day. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork stopper. Tasted in November 2022 (L 10 22). ... More details

Creamy clarity. Bouquet of ripe apples, pears and almonds. Freshness combines with volume without appearing in bold. Mineral, salty final. Aging potential for at least ten years depending on the year.

Country: Germany

Despite being known primarily for sweet and semi-sweet white wines, Germany actually produces a surprisingly large and varied range of wines, with many reaching an extremely high standard and being very well received on the world stage. The terrain across much of the southern parts of the country is extremely fertile, with mineral rich soils adding a wonderful edge to already excellent grapes, and thus resulting in delicious and highly elegant white and rosé wines. The climate in many parts of Germany also allows for some more unusual wine-making practices, with certain regions specializing in the highly aromatic and distinctive 'ice-wines' which are gaining popularity by those looking for something a little more intense and unusual. With these wines, the producers allow the grapes to freeze through the early frosts, resulting in a higher sugar content and a fantastic set of flavors and aromas in the finished product. Germany has long since favored quality over quantity, and a new enthusiasm for fine wine within the country is producing truly exciting results, using a blending of traditional and contemporary techniques.
