Palatinate Pinot Noirs in Burgundian style

11 July 2015
Werner Elflein

Palatinate vineyards

The thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge. You, who so well know the nature of my soul, will not suppose, however, that I gave utterance to a threat. At length I would be avenged; this was a point definitively settled — but the very definitiveness with which it was resolved precluded the idea of risk.

I must not only punish but punish with impunity. A wrong is unredressed when retribution overtakes its redresser. It is equally unredressed when the avenger fails to make himself felt as such to him who has done the wrong. It must be understood that neither by word nor deed had I given Fortunato cause to doubt my good will. I continued, as was my wont, to smile in his face, and he did not perceive that my smile now was at the thought of his immolation.

The rating of the wine reflects the mean value from a tasting by our jury.
The wine was evaluated in a blind tasting.
The wine was tasted as a barrel sample or before an official test number (Amtliche Prüfungsnummer or Staatliche Prüfnummer) was issued.
The wine exhibited a sensory abnormality during our tasting. This does not necessarily have to be a qualitative defect or a wine fault. In the case of a qualitative impairment, a devaluation or rejection was made depending on the type and severity of the defect or wine fault.

Bright, slightly clouded garnet red with high transparency. Spicy, in the beginning fine fruity scent of raspberry and cranberry. Currently in a difficult condition, because the new wood is quite dominant in its expression compared to the elegant, sweetish Pinot fruit. Unfortunately, even several hours of decanting will not change that much. During this time, however, the fruit is able to show itself to its best advantage again. However, the desired harmony is not quite achieved. Very good length.

Transparent, cloudy garnet red. In the nose ethereal, with pronounced roasted aromas reminiscent of coffee, among other things. Subtle but broad fruit spectrum with raspberry, cherry, cranberry and blackberry. On the palate the new wood again dominates. Coarse-grained, crumbly tannins. Concentrated, but not coarse. Very good length. Needs a few hours in the carafe to open.

Tasted on 7 January 2021 by Werner Elflein

Slightly cloudy, initially still transparent and bright, later clearly more opaque and darker garnet red. Woody aroma of blackberry, raspberry, caramel and hazelnut. Fine fruity approach. The prominent wood tannins, not integrated as expected due to bottle maturity, are partly supportive, but also counteract the elegance and raise questions. Nevertheless, a highly ambitious Pinot Noir with spice and outstanding length.
