Tasting notes
The 2022 Spätburgunder Hundsrück GG is coolish and intense on the spicy, fresh and peppery, beautifully concentrated nose that comes as a perfume and merges the characters of the Centgrafenberg and the Schlossberg. Earthy, herbal and coolish on the nose, with rose petal and black tea aromas, this is a silky, fresh, refined and energetic, pure, tight and textured as well as finessed Pinot with crunchy and spicy tannins and vital but fine and palate-tickling acidity and salinity. The wine is long, intense and complex, full of thrill and tension and hedonistic cherry fruit. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in April 2024.

Crunchy red raspberry, currant and plum, wet stone, and the woodsy/stemmy spice of rosemary and juniper. Balanced elegance, with none of the wild, raw edges of the Centgrafenberg. This is raw silk, fine-boned texture. Shape shifting in the glass, moving from crisp to lithe, from red fruit to black, and back again. The through-line of acidity draws the whole together like the moon's gravity on the tides. Beautiful, complex and revelling in the silence and austerity of the vintage. (PS)
