BATTENFELD-SPANIER, FRAUNBERG, RHEINHESSEN, GG, 2007




Crazy nose – mainly with tones from the spontaneous fermentation, sulphur, green peber fruit and just a touch of tight tropical fruit (mango). This wine has really a lot of extract (it seems to be the structure and style of the producer – although this is the lightest) resulting in a creamy velvet soft texture there is lifted by the acidity. Without the acidity this wine had really been heavy and difficult to drink (as it was the case with the 2006 version of this wine). The taste has tones of peach and underneath liquorice. It is going to be interesting to taste this wine in a couple of years.

16.5/20

Served at the big dry German GG 2007 tasting - se http://german-wines.blogspot.com/2008/11/up-coming-tasting.html
