Malterdinger, Spätburgunder, 2022

This offers up a heady mix of violet and silky suave red and dark berries, eminently juicy, fresh and drinkable with some lovely rounding spice and nice mature tannins on the finish. This cuvee is made using all Grand Cru Bienenberg fruit, predominantly from French clones with a small proportion of German Spatburgunder clones. It is brimming with beautifully judged fruits, nervy, yet fully ripe tannins and acidities, and a sense of verve and transparency that makes it incredibly exciting.
