Tasting note

2021 Bio Weingut Maier Tamino

Deep ruby in colour. Slightly reddish streaks in the glass. Fruity and sweetish-spicy nose of medium intensity. Dark plum, black cherry, blackberry. Vanilla and a hint of ash on top, possibly from the barrel ageing. Medium body on the palate with astringent but soft tannins. Firm acidity that harmonises well with the dark fruit. Blackberries and blackcurrants. Pleasant, albeit short, finish with dark berry skin and vanilla. A good wine for early consumption. Fairly extracted style in terms of colour, tannin and body.

Drink from 2024 through 2027.

Tasted by Dominik Müller on Sunday, 8 December 2024.

Baden

Baden is Germany's southernmost wine growing region. It stretches about 400 kilometers from north to south along the Rhine. Baden is also Germany's warmest wine region. Much like its French neighbour Alsace, its climate is heavily influenced by its location in between the Vosges and the Black Forest, shielding it from cold winds and heavy rains. Best-known for Burgundian varieties, especially Pinot Noir (Spätburgunder), Pinot Blanc (Weißburgunder) and Pinot Gris (Grauburgunder). More than 15,000 hectares of vineyards. Diverse soils, ranging from loess and volcanic stones in the Kaiserstuhl region to shell-limestone in Tauberfranken.
