Ahr First Growths
Submitted by Barry’s Wine Notes & Memories
My wife & I are at the age where we don’t give each other presents at Christmas..we save the money for a break or to go out for a meal. There are no rules about giving ourselves gifts tho..well..that’s my excuse…
Continuing my search for Spätburgunder from the Ahr…I purchased a case of top-end wines from the 2003 & 2004 vintages…all ‘Grosses Gewächs’(First Growths)..
Looking forward over the next 2 weeks to tasting these (hopefully) gems.

Hi, just had my first spatburgunder, a 1479 n , I think 2006, at a local restaurant in San Franciso. It was surprisingly a good Pinot Noir. Any suggestions for this type and where in San Francisco they can be found?
Thanks
