The last
B.L.K. today! Unfortunately I couldn’t find an adequate Blanc de Noir Lemberger
from Württemberg in Germany.
I really intended to be an adventurous guy this time. But the system worked
against me. So I decided in favour of a Lemberger I never had so far.
I guess, I
limit myself to the pure and unadulterated tasting note. Only this time! You
may feel free to worry about this future threat ;-)
Its colour
was very transparent, slightly dark red and very juvenile looking. The bouquet seemed
very classical for a light, uncomplicated and young B.L.K. I got scents of
fresh smoke, green paprika, green pepper, red currant and some hints of lavender. The
taste was, as usual, rather austere and butch. Maybe not as acidic as I’ve
expected it to be. The acid was present, but not dominant. Besides that I got
light flavours of red currant, black pepper and the typical Lemberger spiciness. This wine
appeared to be a very honest Lemberger without any evasive manoeuvres. Nothing
special though! Category: Summer Wine! Totally easy-going in terms of body and mind. Very reasonable, just 5 Euros!
Well, the
B.L.K. Cup 2012 is over and the paramount’ing winner comes from Felix Austria! Of
course a totally unfair, biased and disparate competition. It's an unfair world
after all ;-)
