Pinot Noir, Hundsruck, Grosses Gewächs, 2023

The Hundsrück is always its own beast. High-toned, more dramatic wilder fruits, spicy and intense, firm and focused, more backward and long-term but so pure and persistent in a supremely classy, unshowy way. 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. Fermented with 100% whole cluster and aged in French barrique.
