Wine information
The Oberbergener Steinriese has its origins in the vineyards of the Oberbergener Bassgeige, which lie diagonally from the winery and are characterised by volcanic soil with a high proportion of lime and iron. This is where 100% Burgundian Pinot Noir clones thrive, characterised by their very low yield.
Dismantling instructions
After ageing for 18 months in French barriques, the new wood content was 40-50 %.
Colour intensity
A bright cherry red characterises its appearance.
Flavours
A tasting reveals a charming wine, especially when treated with sufficient oxygen in the decanter in its young stage. Cool fruit aromas of dark cherries, blackberries, blackcurrants, cranberries and dark plum jam mingle with notes of wild mint, tree bark, leather and wood smoke. Subtle hints of fine dark chocolate, truffle, leather and juniper are discernible and are likely to develop fully at a later stage.
Taste
On the palate, the 2020 Oberbergener Bassgeige "Steinriese" Spätburgunder is intense and presents itself in its youthful stage with a still demanding acid and tannin structure. However, a premonition of the beauty that lies dormant in this growth is already emerging. Wine connoisseurs and the patient could put a few bottles of this wine in the cellar to open years later to indulge their taste buds. When young, it is recommended to decant the wine 2-3 hours before serving and pour it in large glasses.
Alternatives for food pairings
Try it with walnut ravioli on bitter chicory and orange segments, a thyme rack of lamb with crispy rosemary potatoes or venison loin accompanied by unctuous spinach pasta.
