There is nothing that Henschke Winery can't produce at the highest level. Remarkable wine. Now I need more. — 10 years ago
@ the Bohemian, in Savannah, eating shrooms and a rare filet mignon. This Rioja Ida fine compliment covering one's whole mouth in an unctuous sort if way... Very balanced! Salud ! — 13 years ago
Very close to perfection. See previous notes but this also has Iodine (As a chemist i am well familiar with that note). Unspitable. In the top 1%. See my previous notes. Pinot does not get better than this a perfect expression of the site north of Freiburg on the slopes of the black forest. — 5 months ago

Dear Friends warning this wine needs 48 hours to open up! I kept it for that time under Argon!
Still think the 2015 Muschelkalk mights have peaked. I opened 3 bottles. The first was oxidized and the other 2 were good to world class. The cork on all three was quite soft.
The wine has this ethereal character but the twisty black forest herbs are somewhat gone. It is still great to drink - but to shine one needs stupido patience.
Calk, very faint cherry. (Collecting E&M since 2009. And have been at the winery every other year.).
If you have it you must really experiment and play around but also - drink it up! Not a wine for normal or sane people.

Light in color with a brown twinge. Quite perfumed. Sweet Pinot fruit. Better than their IDA Buntsandstein at this point in it’s evolution. Orange zest, strawberry, cranberry. Quite tart and kind of oaky. For some reason all the big boys of the 20‘ vintage do not come across as a top vintage for E & M. Good but they just don’t reach the heights of other vintage’s. — 25 days ago
