TT Weinfest 5 : Light red wine, black fruit, lots off acidity. Not very special.

Quite stringent at first. Really starts to express itself after about 2 hours of decanting. On the nose a bit earthy and spicy. Also some ripe cranberry. On the palate some blackcurrant and mint. Smooth, velvety and quite a long finish. Very nice spätburgunder and good value.

Really improves with oxygen - much more expressive and open on the second day (after a two hour double decant immediately after opening). Very Burgundian nose with lovely red and blue fruit, a hint of oak spice and attractive cool minerality; the palate has a juicy attack, medium weight and nice balance. However, a drying, tannic, cranberry streak runs through it that continues on the finish. I do not think it will improve much with age. But it was a …

Screwcap, RS 0.1 gr/l, TA 5.1 gr/l, 13.5% ABV. Cool and mineral style, quite Burgundian in style (think northern Côte de Nuits, Marsannay maybe), almost ripe strawberries and cranberries, hint of cream but not lactic, fresh and with tight phenolics, energetic, hint of spice, dry finish, good length. In the cool 2014 vintage, this lacks generosity, and although it may soften with some more time in the bottle, it will never be a charmer. Will be a good foil for …

Airing needed to take the edge of a certain pointedness. Wet forest aroma. Elegant. Lithe. Everything is in place except a certain depth.

Ok pinot noir, consistent in profile with my previous tastings of cheap german PN. Has a slightly disturbing bitterness at the end which took a lot of hours to air out.

Clear light garnet colour, young. On the nose it's clen, medium intens with some definitiv oak notes as tobacco and smoke(reminds me of flint so can be a mixture with a mineral note), also red currant/rasberry. On the palate it's dry, pretty much medium on every checkpoint and has some tannins from oak i feel. Aromas is smoke(flint), light red berries, liqorice root, tobacco and grape fruit on finish. It's fairly intens, properly balanced and concentrated. Complexity and lenght is …

Medium intense nose of mostly red berries and a bit of roasted oak. Light bodied with a medium acidity and a rather thin intensity. There is a light spritz on the palate as well. Won't buy again.

Ren och fin frukt med både jordgubbar och hallon. Hyfsat fin balans med lakrits i eftersmaken. Inte speciellt komplext men utan tvekan ett prisvärt vin
