tasting notes of wines from Weingut Eberhard Klein, Walheim, Baden-Württemberg
Ich war bei einem Brunch im Restaurant in Schiller in Württemberg. Dort gab es Weine vom Weingut Klein, welche man alle verkosten konnte. Der Winzer war auch direkt vor Ort. Diese Chance habe ich genutzt, um neuen Input zu bekommen und Kontakte zu knüpfen. Da ich bis dato noch nicht von den Württemberger Weinen überzeugt war, wollte ich mir das natürlich nicht entgehen lassen.
Ich ging einfach direkt hin und erzählte, dass ich mich für Wein interessiere und dass ich gerne die Weine probieren würde. Leider hatte er nicht alle da, aber die da waren probierte I made out with him and that I take a look to a wine tasting in the winery.
He belongs to a new breed of winemakers from Württemberg who make more than the normal Trollinger and Lemberger, of which one has had enough. Dull, inharmonious wines should belong to the past and these winemakers want to get the very best by special selection and vinification of the grapes and thus make its significant potential. So I began
directly with the dry times Trollinger from steep slopes. I could never do something Trollinger, since that was not really a wine for me. But ... .. this Trollinger was absolutely amazing. And that to me is no one who knows me, believe, as I otherwise of Trollinger said. But this
Trollinger is a strong character and finesse essential speak through the development that he has absolutely fun. He is a wonderfully refreshing alternative to the rose in the summer. I'm going to get for the summer in any case a few bottles, that's for guests sometimes a welcome change. It tastes so juicy strawberries and raspberries, as a fantastic rose and one dares not stop.
Next, I went to a Lemberger dry aged in oak barrels over. I've done this I now and then a positive experience, but often poor, whose wines were too angry and discordant. But this was Lviv perfectly round and drew even with its cherry red one to drink. Flavors of cherry, plum and raspberry stood out clearly and caresses the palate. Coupled with a woody, smoky but not dominant tone, made this wine a sharp figure and is really something special.
The next wine was called EPONA dry rot, which is a cuvee of Pinot Noir, Lemberger, Merlot and Zweigelt. His deep dark red at the sight fascinated me. And the taste was overwhelming. Ripe plums and blueberries in a harmonized manner with each other, which I had rarely experienced. The wine was soft and harmonious, and absolute top class. Then it went
to the whites, where I had to date, and Württemberg really not a good opinion, because I always found it too immature and disharmonious. I tried a Riesling Kabinett. And it was the first Riesling from Württemberg, who had impressed me totally. He has convinced me and cast a spell Riesling. Unusually fruity, pear, apple remembered with a caressing touch of apricot and peach me, the wine has a touch of the Mosel ... ..
Very unusual and lonely for a top Wurttemberg Riesling.
went Then on to a lovely Traminer Auslese. And he was an absolute highlight. Traminer-typical aromas, full of character but soft and velvety wine flows in the mouth. A wine in a class with a harmonious interplay of aromas and a round acid-sweetness ratio, leaves nothing to be desired.
Next came the EPONA dry white, which is a cuvee of Pinot Gris, Chardonnay and Riesling. Once a steel tank and once matured in oak barrels. Both wines are original and have their character. The wine barrel was a bit more mature, quiet and harmonious, absolutely fantastic. The wine from the steel tank was rather young, exciting and alive.
There was also a sparkling wine which is called EPONA gold, extra brut, which I liked very well. I am a big Sektfan and he can not dry enough for me. This sparkling wine is a cuvee of Pinot Gris and Chardonnay and a queen among the sects. This sparkling wine has very strong features of a champagne and aiming high, he also creates. Fine bubbles and delicate flavors caress the palate. If you like something, this sparkling wine will find many supporters, he has charmed me already!
The estate will be small in any case, one of my favorites and I'll let me see there ever again.

Esther
