    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    Kreuz always seem to have a more expressive and spicier persona with respect to the Kirchenstuck, which is a little silkier and sweet-berried by comparison. Kreuz 2022 is more on the red fruits with background notes of herbs, fine earth and even a touch of caraway, advancing on the palate with a wash of mineral-rich, ripe tannins and long edgy finish. Kreuz is home to the first grafted Burgundian Pinot clones in Germany, planted at the same time as Huber’s Wildenstein. The rootstocks in this Oppenheim vineyard are an impressive 70 years old and the plants date back to 1996. On a gentle incline of 30%, facing southeast, the soils are loess and limestone.
