"Musky, spicy nose shows more obvious varietal character than the Cuvee Theo. Full, broad and spicy, with ripe, harmonious acids giving shape to the wine. A bit of tannic bitterness and a piquant note of red grapefruit provides grip to the finish. These vines are located beneath Altenbourg, which is in the middle of the slope, below the grand cru Furstentum." Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Nov/Dec 06 |
