2021 Ried Kalvarienberg
***** 18.5 points
Dense bouquet with notes of cold smoke, spicy nuances, and hints of cocoa, juniper, and Turkish honey; appears quite youthful. Juicy and full-bodied on the palate, with chocolate notes, very dense and powerful, fully developed, with great fruit expression, reminiscent of Pimm’s liqueur and orange jelly, and a very long finish.
