Baden Wines

Time passes...and wines are drunk...notes are made...but just got to sit down and blog them.
Sparse maybe...but at least you get something.

Martin Wassmer Weiser Burgunder
Dottinger Castellberg 2010
Baden, Germany
Delicate flowery nose...perfumed...creamy palate...lively minerals...real nice package...decent oak...spicy...
I could get to like this WB
16.5...but with potential

Martin Wassmer Schlatter Spätburgunder 2009
Baden, Germany
Nose reminded me of rum...where the recent 2007 seemed raw in comparison...this shows rich silky fruit...typical 2009...the balance is perfect...and oak well integrated.
Points 17.25

Huber Spätburgunder Alte Reben 2008
Baden, Germany
Sweetish old vine nose...red fruits...strawberry and redcurrant...hint of marzipan...decent acidity...gained power overnight...all Huber wines are excellent...but the Alte Reben is probably the best value for money
Points 17.25

Seeger Blauer Spätburgunder S 2011
Baden, Germany
Situated in Leimen...Seeger is now a major force in Germany.
This was quite forward...delicate gentle briary tannins...smokey...elegant.
Points 17

Claus Schneider Weiler Schlipf
Spätburgunder CS
Baden, Germany
Notes of cherries...spices...earthy but evolving nicely and showing silky fruit...
fine grained tannins...tobacco...cool and attractively fresh...and a good 'overnighter'
