Pinot Noir, Bürgstadter Berg Erste Lage, 2022
The Erste Lage (Premier Cru) Burgstadter Berg acts as the younger sibling to the Centgrafenberg and Hundsrück GGs, being a blend of the two sites. Aged in 20% new French oak.
critic reviews
From plots within the Centgrafenberg (40%) and Hunsruck (60%) grands crus, the 2022 Spatburgunder Burgstadter Berg 1G is deep, intense and elegant on the finely concentrated and fruity nose that shows aromas of ripe cherries, blackcurrant and nuances of woodruff combined with crunchy salts and ripe, finely grained tannins. This is Pinot as an event! Dense and generous yet open on the immediately conquering palate, this is another amazing 2022 from Sebastian Furst. It is pure, fresh and saline, very delicate and spectacularly long and tensioned but never powerful or big. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in April 2024.
