Gutzler Dorn Dürkheimer Spätburgunder 2017

Gutzler Dorn Dürkheimer Spätburgunder 2017 is a refined German Pinot Noir that combines elegance, depth, and a strong sense of place. Sourced from respected vineyards around Dürkheim in Rheinhessen, it showcases both the character of the region and the precise craftsmanship of Weingut Gutzler.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this wine shows a deep garnet-red hue that already hints at its concentration. The nose opens with ripe dark cherry, blackcurrant, and raspberry, layered with forest floor, spice, and a subtle touch of toasted oak. On the palate, it is beautifully balanced, with juicy red berry fruit, well-integrated tannins, and a fine mineral edge. Bright acidity gives the wine energy and length, leading to a persistent finish. With its structure and balance, it should drink well now and also has good short- to medium-term aging potential.

Production
This Spätburgunder comes from vineyards around Dürkheim in Rheinhessen, where the terroir helps shape a wine with both fruit purity and mineral nuance. The grapes are carefully harvested to preserve freshness and quality, then vinified with attention to extracting finesse rather than power, allowing the varietal character and vintage expression to remain at the forefront.

Food & Serving
A natural match for game, lamb, roast duck, and mature cheeses, this wine also works well with mushroom-based dishes and rich poultry preparations. Serve it slightly cool, around 15–17°C, and consider decanting for about 30 minutes if drinking young to let the aromas open up fully.
