2022 Trotzenberg Spatburgunder QW, dry, 11.5% vol., Bertram-Baltes, ORGANIC

DE-OKO-006 Ruby red with blue-violet reflections. Intense aromas of ripe cherries and some blackcurrants as well as subtle vegetative barrique tones can also be found. A round, long and intense wine that you can`t get enough of! Julia Bertram and Benny Baltes have been a couple for a long time and for years they formed a dream team on the Klingenberg winery (later the Benedikt Baltes winery). Now they have decided to return to their home on the Ahr and concentrate fully on Julia`s parents` winery. The balancing act between Franconia and the Ahr was too great. Now they will implement their ideas of organic viticulture on the extremely steep slopes around Dernau. The conversion took place in the very first year, the goal is biodynamic certification and both dream of being able to implement permaculture with sheep in the vineyard. The winery has some of the best locations on the Ahr and Benny conjures up very fine Pinot with depth, always balanced, never loud, but always full of expression and drinking pleasure.
