    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    A GG of deep minerality imbued with pulpy limes, cut apples, aniseed, fennel and pink grapefruit, the Zellerweg am Schwarzen Herrgott is super complex with a honed, controlled, inner strength. Wonderful. The vines here quickly hit dark limestone and the effect on the palate is one of structured minerality. This is one of the oldest known vineyard sites in Germany, first recognised in the 8th Century. The vineyard is technically split in to two sections – the Zellerweg am Schwarzen Herrgott which sits administratively in the Rheinhessen, whilst the part below the road is dubbed just Am Schwarzen Herrgott under jurisdiction of the Pfalz. Both have dark limestone soils and are heavily influenced by the Donnersberg mountains to the west, from where cool winds flow.
