Weingut Keßler Spätburgunder trocken 2021
A solid very approcable Pinot Noir from Rheinhessen in Germany.
🍷 Tasting notes
Colour & appearance
Light to medium ruby.
Aroma / Bouquet
Red berries like cherry, raspberry and dried herbs. A subtle vanilla can be observed influenced by he barrel ageing.
Palate (taste)
Pretty elegant, lighter body; moderate tannins—not aggressive, and very smooth; dry; decent acidity giving freshness. A somewhat gentle, more delicate style of Pinot Noir rather than big, powerful red.
Finish
Clean, moderately long; fruit lingers; oak influence shows in the aftertaste (light spice and toast).
🍽️ Food pairing
This kind of wine should pair well with
- Lighter meats: roasted chicken, pork, veal
- Game birds - Mushrooms / earthy flavours
- Grilled vegetables
- Soft cheeses (brie, camembert, etc.)
- Dishes with light sauces - nothing too heavy or very spicy.
🧩 Takeaway
Excellent value for an organic Rheinhessen Pinot Noir with barrel ageing. At just €10.90, it offers remarkable quality for the price. With a few years of bottle ageing, the wine will gain complexity and richness while its acidity becomes more integrated.
