Horn, Spätburgunder, 2021

A wonderfully complex and almost exotic Pinot-rich bouquet with real class and refinement, the 2021 Horn really brings together all those soil, fruit and spice elements. Grand-scaled but even-keeled with a crunchy, saline finish. Horn is a recognised Grand Cru and one of the region’s best sites. The Adams parcel is in the upper third of the vineyard, where, in addition to limestone, there is a fine layer of silt, which they say makes for balanced ripening. Fermented with 100% whole bunches, just two barriques were produced.
