Henkenberg, volcanic weathered rock with lots of limestone inclusions

Tasting Notes:

Still closed on the nose, rosehip, wild raspberry, cherry, and black currant, herbal and spicy notes, wet earth, and yeast. Also youthful on the palate but with good aging potential and clearly defined contours. A wine full of energy that is fed by minerality, dry, uncompromising, fine salinity, some sloe, and tannins that are ripe for further development.

 Recommendation: 16-18° C; meat from various animal species

good ageing potential
