Gimmeldingen Spätburgunder trocken - A. Christmann

The A. Christmann Gimmeldingen Pinot Noir is a first-class red wine. Here it offers a wonderfully bright, light red color. With a bit of sideways lay, the red wine glass reveals a charming garnet red hue at the rims. When swirling the wine glass, one can perceive a perfect balance in this red wine, as it does not stand out watery or syrupy or liqueur-like on the glass walls. Poured into a red wine glass, this Old World red wine offers wonderfully expressive aromas of blackberry, plum and red currant, rounded out by other fruity nuances contributed by barrel aging.

This German wine delights with its elegantly dry flavor. It was bottled with exceptionally little residual sugar. As you would expect from a wine in the top wine range, this German wine naturally enraptures with the finest balance despite all its dryness. Aroma does not necessarily need residual sugar. Balanced and multifaceted, this dense red wine presents itself on the palate. In the finish, this very storable red wine from the wine-growing region of the Palatinate finally inspires with considerable length. There are again hints of red currant and plum.
