Wittmann Description
Hand harvested from estate-owned vineyards in the village of Westhofen, the Spätburgunder is an elegant, classic Pinot Noir. It has a fine aroma of dark berries and herbs atop a full, yet delicate texture on the palate. Well structured and mouth filling, with a minerally acid edge that gives it a lively finish.
Wine Advocate: 91 Points
From a coolish year and entirely sourced in the Steingrube, the 2021 Spätburgunder trocken opens with a fine and juicy cherry and cassis aroma intertwined with darker toasty notes. Silky and fresh on the palate, this is a medium-bodied, intense and juicy Pinot Noir with fine tannins intertwined with saline/crystalline acidity. It's a very respectable and serious red wine from vines planted in the late 1980s (German clones) and in 2000 (Dijon). It can match any Bourgogne rouge. 12.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork.
