Kühling-Gillot Spätburgunder Oppenheimer Kreuz Grosses Gewächs 2016

WineSaint

Tart red fruit and mineral backbone drive this elegant Spätburgunder from Oppenheimer Kreuz. Oak integration feels heavy-handed, masking some of the vineyard's natural expression. The wine shows good energy and lift at 13.5% alcohol, though the finish turns austere with chalky tannins.
