    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    The feather in the cap of the Fürst estate, the Hundsrück has been recognised as an individual terroir since at least the 16th century. An intensely rocky, cool site, the wines often require more time to reveal themselves, rewarding those with patience. Stylistically, we see here a complete volte-face after the aristocratically styled 2020. The 2021 is more minimalistic, more reserved, more introspective. Very gradually it builds in the glass, teasing a certain dark fruited power, with hints of spearmint, smoke, herbs and grated nutmeg. Firmer in structure but with the most persistent finish, this is a GG in tight, forceful proportion. Widely agreed to be in the top handful of Germany’s very best red wines. Fermented with 100% whole cluster and aged in French barrique.
