Salwey 2015 Oberrotweiler Henkenberg GG Pinot Noir (Baden)
#89 Top 100 Cellar Selections 2019
Return to List Prominent notes of smoke, char and bramble mingle into zesty, invigorating bites of crisp black plum and cherry. Full bodied and velvety on the palate, it's equal parts savory earth tones and pristine fruit, but needs a bit more time to meld. Open from 2021. It should improve through 2030 and hold further still. Anna Lee C. Iijima
