soft and juicy

Chalky tannins bring in a zippy lemony finish

with excellent complexity on both the nose and palate and a very elegant and refined mouth feel

yet it effortlessly manages to retain the precision and tension one expects from this cru

Gustavshof Rheinhessen Puristica Pinot 2020 wine-spectator soft and juicyRuby color. Fruity aroma of forest fruits, overripe strawberries, liquorice. Flavour of ripe to overripe red fruit. Medium body, medium acidity, fine tannin. This wine needs time. Immediately after opening, it shows almost nothing. Open it and come back to it the next day or decant it for at least an hour or two. Have a fresh paste with tomato sauce and parmesan. No added sulphites.
