Description

Product description for Franz Keller Achkarren Spätburgunder 2022

Colour

Bright cherry red with light violet reflections and a light rim.

Nose

It is enormously captivating on the nose. Blackcurrant, blueberry, blackberry, raspberry, and all kinds of cherries are stunningly fruity and appealing. The cherry is extremely juicy. Its tart, dark character also recalls a distinctly aronia juice. It also delivers abundant woody nuances: undergrowth, damp forest floor, ethereal spice, and branches. This subsequently gives rise to juniper and rosemary. It builds up elegantly and florally behind it. Violets stand out. Its fruit is present throughout, but underscored by spice. Dark chocolate, pepper, and licorice present themselves discreetly further along the nose. Never intrusive. Always seeking balance.

Palate

On the palate, it lives up to all the promises of the nose. A slender, silky, and racy Pinot Noir stands before us in the glass. It displays abundant elegance and freshness. Its acidity is crucial for these attributes, as well as its flow. It even has more powerful tannins for the grape variety, which suits it very well. This gives it plenty of structure and backbone. Mature and self-contained. For a local wine, this is very good to outstanding. It shows character, origin, and spice. Rich, dense, and compact. The fruit is key, but it also experiences spice and woody aromas in the finish.
