Aldinger 2019 Fellbacher Trollinger Alte Reben
From a 35 year-old plot in the Lämmler (a Grosse Lage), and given 12 months in used barriques, this is a mid-weight but strikingly salty and insistent wine that demonstrates the impact that Trollinger can make when deliberately constrained by low yields and the vinification is as serious as that accorded to Pinot Noir.
