2014 Benedikt Baltes Klingenberger Spatburgunder R 750Ml Bottle Aligote crushed iris petal and crushed"From 40 year old vines on terraced vineyards. Quiet nose a tea leaf note and some wild red berries. More serious and savoury than the straight Grossheubacher and Klingenberger. Darker and a little wild. Smoky lapsang and juniper threaded in through a velvety fabric of tannins and dark cherry. Long, intense, vibrating." Tamlyn Currin, jancisrobinson. com
