Bombach Summer Pasture

The 2022 Leopold Schatzle Spätburgunder from the Bombacher Sommerhalde in the Baden Kaiserstuhl region is an elegant example of German Pinot Noir, with a brilliant ruby-red color and a hint of garnet. The bouquet unfolds intense red berries such as raspberries and cherries, underpinned by earthy tones, spices, and mineral freshness from the volcanic soil. On the palate, it is medium-to-full-bodied with silky tannins and lively acidity that brightens the dark fruit and herbs. Layers of blackberry and pepper lead to a long, elegant finish with fine-grained grip. It combines purity and concentration, is delicious to drink now and gains complexity in 4-6 years – a treasure for Pinot lovers.
