Product description for Franz Keller Enselberg Jechtingen Spätburgunder 1G VDP Erste Lage 2022
Information about the wine
This wine comes from the Jechtinger Enselberg vineyard. The site, characterized by light and dark, stony volcanic soils and a fine layer of loess in the topsoil, offers wonderful views of the Rhine plain. The clones, which originated in Burgundy, were planted in 1999 and 2003. This Erstes Gewächs (First Growth) was spontaneously fermented to 1.2 grams of residual sugar. It was aged for 18 months in French barriques with 40% new wood. Until last year, this was still a GG (German Champion), but Friedrich Keller downgraded this always particularly accessible Pinot Noir to a 1G (German Champion) in order to enhance the Erstes Gewächs category and simultaneously sharpen the profile of the Großes Gewächs (Great Growths).
Colour
Medium cherry red
Nose
The Enselberg Pinot Noir presents itself as cool, sleek, quite powerful, and delicately spicy, with intense cherry fruit and distinct hints of dark forest berries, some plum, and a subtle aftertaste of foliage and undergrowth. A light smoky note underlies this. It all appears very pure and clear.
Palate
On the palate, this is an elegant, fine, open Pinot Noir with a light, well-integrated roasted note and spicy tannins. The Enselberg is juicy, complex, yet uncomplicated, with lively, and intense fruit. The acidity is piquant and develops a pleasant tension on the palate, sinewy, and will maintain this tension for years. A magnificent First Growth!
