Simon Says It’s Good
Submitted by Barry’s Wine Notes & Memories
Not many Americans get to try Spätburgunder of quality..but Lyle has visited Germany a few times..and he mentioned Schnaitmann….and as I have been exploring Württemberg recently…This vineyard in Fellbach has just celebrated it’s 10th birthday…and has been winning prizes for a few years now…
Rainer Schnaitmann Simonroth
Spätburgunder trocken 2006
Württemberg, Germany
This spends time in new and used barrels…
Intense, complex nose..strawberries, raspberries and cherries and a touch of cinnamon..there is a thick fruit feel about this wine..but that’s not to say it is heavy…just a youthful package…already soft and gentle..with dancing acidity on the tongue..again complexity…it ‘feels’ good….from start to finish..no lumps or bumps….just needs a year or two…
