Königsbacher Idig Spätburgunder Großes Gewächs - Weingut A. Christmann

The Königsbacher Idig Spätburgunder Großes Gewächs from Weingut A. Christmann in the Palatinate shows a bright, light red color in the glass. If you give it some air in the glass by swirling, you can perceive a first-class balance in this red wine, as it does not stand out on the glass walls as watery or syrupy or liqueur-like. To the nose, this Weingut A. Christmann red wine presents all sorts of blackberries and plums. As if that were not already impressive, the aging in small wooden barrels adds further aromas such as mineral and pepper.

This wine delights with its elegantly dry flavor. It was bottled with exceptionally little residual sugar. Here it is a real quality wine, which clearly stands out from simpler qualities and so this German wine enchants naturally with all dryness with the finest balance. Excellent taste does not necessarily need sugar. Balanced and complex, this dense red wine presents itself on the palate. The final of this youthful red wine from the wine-growing region of the Palatinate, more precisely from Königsbach, finally convinces with considerable reverberation. The finish is also accompanied by mineral notes of the limestone-dominated soils.
