Slightly carbonated, funky, dry, crisp, wonderful, not too tart... perfect with seafood. This is a favorite. — 5 months ago

Another solid vintage of Ziereisen’s Entry Level Baden Spatburgunder. Dark garnet color with a ruby core. Fragrant aromas of red cherry/berry fruit, forest floor and a hint of smoke. Flavors of sour cherry, unripe strawberry and pomegranate fruit with additional hints of dried herbs, savory spices and minerals. Long lasting earthy finish and extremely smooth tannins. Medium bodied with a very smooth texture and a bit of tension. Rustic but quite elegant at the same time. Excellent quality for a reasonable price. — 2 months ago
I adore this wine as there is nothing like it in Germany or the wine world at large. One foot in the Cote de Beaune, one foot in Saulheim and one foot somewhere else. Nose is so giving and intense. Some toasty wood, but minerals blaring underneath, and just gorgeous limestone minerality but what stands out is the absolute purity aromatically and on the palate. Seductive and rich but oh my god the purity is out of this world. So fine, so elegant, and so nimble. The combo of richness/decadence and nimbleness allied also the most filigree one can imagine makes this a knockout. This is just profound. Finish is endless and this is at once delicate and rich. This wine is a contradiction that works. This is so elegant, so delicate and the controlled richness is out of this world. — 9 months ago

Intended to get a Chablis for oysters as I love that pairing and couldn’t resist the label. Pleasantly surprised and was $20 cheaper than the others I normally buy. Not quite as complex as some other serious whites but completely ok with that. Paired extremely well and drinks just as nicely on its own on a patio. — 2 days ago
