Ellwanger
2020 Hebsacker Linnenbrunnen Spätburgunder Grand Cru dry  x 2
Württemberg

Bit smoky, bacon-kip nose. The fruit takes a while to build through the oak, starting a little musty and musky but it gathers and then floods through. Red-apple skin, hawthorn berries. Elegant and shaped by focused (but not sharp) acidity.""The name refers to a little house in the vineyard which has a water spring (Brunnen) under it. The little house (pictured in the main photo at the top of this article) happens to be an official registry office, so you can get married in the vineyard! Felix Ellwanger says that the vineyard always has water, even in the driest summer, and is surrounded by cherry trees (a good sign, I'm told, because cherry trees thrive where there is a lot of underground water).

Exceptional German Pinot Noir Selection – A Must-Try for Wine Lovers!

I couldn’t be happier with The Pinot Noir Collection—every bottle in this case is a fantastic showcase of German Spätburgunder! As a longtime Pinot Noir fan, I was curious to explore how German producers compare to their French and New World counterparts, and I have to say, I’m incredibly impressed.

Each bottle brings something different to the table, from elegant, light-bodied styles with bright red fruit to richer, more complex expressions with earthy depth and fine tannins. The quality is outstanding for the price, and it’s clear these wines have been carefully curated. The selection offers perfect food pairings too—whether it’s roast duck, charcuterie, or just a quiet evening with a good glass in hand.

Highly recommended for any Pinot Noir lover looking to expand their horizons beyond Burgundy! I’ll definitely be ordering again.
