Bercher 2018 Spätburgunder Burkheimer
From the pure volcanic soil of the famed Feuerberg, this is a serious and focused Pinot of uncompromising quality. Wines like this make the strongest imaginable case for Baden as an unrivalled source of top-quality but modestly-priced Pinot Noir. 2018 was warmer than 2017, but both wines are proportionate and firmly shaped.
