Drink Date:2028 - 2050
The 2022 Spätburgunder Hohlen is from the Zunsinger Rosenberg near Müllheim that faces southwest and is located on shallow limestone soils in which vines were planted in the 1960s at pretty high density. Fermented with 90% whole clusters, this is an intense yet elegant, flinty as well as floral-scented Pinot with a coolish nose. Tight and leathery on the palate, with animal notes (Brettanomyces?), this is a masculine, intense and tight, saline and, hopefully, age-worthy Pinot with a concentrated finish that reveals lots of skins but less juice. Tasted as a sample ready for bottling in February 2024.

The 2022 Spätburgunder Möhlin is from a southeast-facing lieu-dit in the Ehrenstetten Oelberg. It's intense but elegant and refined on the nose, with ripe, dark fruits and some volatile flavors due to the long fermentation that finished in the barrels. This is a lush, intense and tight, velvety and rich as well as powerful, tense, elegant and persistent Pinot Noir with a fleshy and aromatic finish. It's not as fine as some of the other wines in this tasting, yet it has body, intensity and a firm, persistent structure. Tasted as a sample ready for bottling in February 2024.

Drink Date:2028 - 2040
The 2022 Spätburgunder Bellen is from a high-elevation plot in Kirchhofen on loam and loess soils. Fermented with about 50% whole clusters, this is a pure, refined and elegant, slightly toasty-flavored palate that reveals warm yet perfectly ripe fruit intermingled with fine but nervy limestone tannins and pure, refreshing salinity. This is pure and pithy, persistently saline and grippy Pinot with an intense and long finish and remarkably fine and refreshing tannins for old vines. The wine fermented until September 2023. Tasted at the domaine in February 2024.

The 2022 Spätburgunder Kalk is predominantly sourced in Ebringen, Ehrenstetten and Kirchhof and comes from 40-year-old and younger vines. The wine opens with a bright and fresh, cherry and chalky bouquet. Silky, refined and lush on the palate, this is tight, saline and tensioned, remarkably intense and refreshing, firmly structured Pinot with fine but enormously vital acidity, fine limestone tannins and a long and intense finish. Tasted as a sample at the domaine in February 2024, a week before bottling. About 5,000 bottles were expected to be filled.

The 2022 Spätburgunder was fermented with 30% whole clusters and aged in pieces for 14 months. Pure, refined and fresh on the nose, with cherry aromas, this is a lean, fresh but intense Pinot with a refreshing structure and aromatic cherry fruit, although there was drought stress and extended fermentation periods until the following summer. The wine is straight, fresh and saline and very promising. Tasted as a sample in February 2024.
