Schäfer-Fröhlich 2021 Weisser Burgunder -S- trocken

Ausbau: Fermentation in Edelstahltanks, HalbstückFässern und in älteren Barriques

Dieser Weißburgunder Ortswein ist auf rotem Schieferboden auf den ältesten Reben der Schäfer-Fröhlich-Weißburgunder-Anlagen gewachsen.
Durch die späte Traubenlese ist er komplex, mineralisch, harmonisch und balanciert.

Durch extreme Traubenselektion erntet Tim Fröhlich einen exzellenten Burgunder mit fülliger Honigmelonenaromatik.
Komplex und cremig am Gaumen, dezente Säure, und mineralische Finesse im langen Abgang.

Suckling:
"An untypically sleek and focused dry pinot blanc that has a certain creaminess on the mid-palate. But the most striking thing about it is the impressive mineral freshness that drives it over the palate at a very brisk clip. Tons of crisp pear and wet-stone character at the long, cool and crisp finish. From 50-year-old vines planted by Tim Fröhlich’s grandfather." 93 Punkte

Parker:
"From low-yielding, 45- to 50-year-old vines planted by Tim's grandfather on red, hard slate in the Stromberg, the 2021 Weisser Burgunder 'S' trocken offers concentrated and spicy, intense and ripe white fruit intertwined with darker-toned and coolish mineral flavors of crushed slate. Aged in tonneaux and a bit of stainless steel, this is a full-bodied, lush and elegant, very fine and balanced Pinot with delicate tannins and firmly mineral and finely phenolic grip. The wine is juicy and creamy textured and finishes with lingering salinity and fine bitters. Still young, this Pinot Gris should be cellared for at least another two or three years." 92 Punkte
