A characterful Spätburgunder from the historic red wine vineyard Ingelheimer Horn, one of Rheinhessen's classic Pinot parcels. The vines grow on stony loam soils with a high limestone content, which gives the wine structure, tension, and a clearly discernible minerality. The terraced, west-facing site offers long sun exposure and cool evening breezes—ideal conditions for the slow ripening of Spätburgunder.
The wine displays a powerful, spicy Pinot aroma: red cherry, wild berries, rosehip, and a subtle herbal and spice note. This is accompanied by fine earthy nuances and a chalky coolness that underlines its origin. The nose is intense yet precise, with subtle floral accents and restrained oak influence.
On the palate, the Ingelheimer Horn Spätburgunder combines juiciness, power, and mineral austerity. The tannins are grippy yet fine, the acidity clear and vibrant. The lime-influenced character extends into the long, spicy-mineral finish. A Pinot with rustic elegance, energy, and remarkable depth—authentic, not
