Burg Ravensburg 2017 Pinot Noir Loechle Grosses Gewaechs
In the frost-stricken vintage of 2016 the recompense was a wine of sheer class, focused and confident. Now almost gone, its successor vintage has proved to be a stealthy distance-runner, that demonstrates the class of this great, partly terraced vineyard at the bottom of the Burgberg. Fermented with most stems, it is the kind of tensile Pinot that substantiates Baden’s elevated quality claims.
