Dr Bürklin-Wolf Riesling Wachenheimer 'Altenburg' Premier Cru 2021
Very good. Complete, long & fine. A deceptive mid-weight with a much finer more complete finish than its predecessors in the lineup. Underlying savoury layer with delicious slightly green white stone fruit. A little soft green herb.  Excellent texture, mineral, pure & fine. Patience will be rewarded in spades.The first mention of the Altenburg in Wachenheim dates back to the High Middle Age, and this is definitely not the last one. The coolest site of the domaine that holds 1.22

Tiberio Montepuliciano d'Abruzzo 'Colle Vota' 2020
“The 2020 Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Colle Volta is a spice box on the nose, with wilted violets and hints of spiced-orange, white smoke, clove and dried black cherries. It's pleasantly sweet upon entry, with a cool toned feel and lavender-laced wild berry fruits that gain in tension and complexity as a flinty-mineral concentration forms toward the close.
