A private lunch (Restaurant Schwarzenstein - Nils Henkel *, Geisenheim, Germany): A Tresterbrand from the marc of Spätburgunder grapes from the Assmannshäuser Höllenberg, 43%. Medium orange gold colour; intensely yeasty nose, pure and powerful but hot, gentle warmth from the wood, hint of honey; hugely energetic palate, strong but smooth, elegantly structured, rounded and with a nice touch of fruit; long and intense finish. This is ever so slightly rough, but very impressive.
