Product description

Tasting Note

Tropical fruits of ripe pineapple and banana. Fresh walnuts and a touch of marzipan. Full and round in taste. Austere and herbal with a very long finish. A powerful Weissburgunder that goes well with veal, poulards or scallops that are served with a sauce refined with cream, Weissburgunder and herbs.

Tasting Note

Rich golden yellow in the glass. In the bouquet a paradise of ripe yellow fruits and tropical fruits. Followed by caramel notes, toasted bread and dark chocolate. On the palate rather slim, straightforward and very aromatic. The refreshing acidity grabs the palate, creeps again and again through this variety of aromas and makes the wine very handy. But not aggressive. Again in the finish, similar to the 2018 vintage, this palatable saltiness and tart note of a ripe apple peel. Very nice how the wine alternately plays with its fruit and roasted aromas. You just want to bite into this Burgundy, sit back and enjoy.

Awards

2023: James Suckling: 97/100 "What a fabulous interplay of fine toasty oak and caramelized pear character this great dry pinot blanc has. Also a delicate flinty note. Terrific concentration and every bit as much elegance on the medium-bodied palate. The wines from this grape variety are seldom as filigreed and precise as this is in the very long, delightfully pointed finish. Fermented and matured on the lees in 500-liter oak casks. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold."

2022: James Suckling: 95/100 "Stunning integration of white tree fruit and delicate toasty oak wrapped in a ripe pear aroma, a delicate creaminess and an intense minerality. Everything is so beautifully interwoven at the long finish which is brimming with fresh herbal character."

2021: James Suckling: 95/100 "A very sophisticated dry pinot with super-fine pear fruit and great precision, this concentrated wine feels much lighter than you might think. The touch of oak beautifully integrated at the very long and very refined herbal finish." | Wine accompaniment at the Supperclub 2023.1 for "Sautéed romaine lettuce with parmesan espuma, parsley emulsion, parsley oil, kalamata olives and crispy parmesan paper" | Wine accompaniment at the Supperclub 2023.2 for "Shiitake-dashi with mushroom-tofu-cabbage-wantan"

2020: James Suckling: 95/100 "A great dry Pinot Blanc with a very striking nose of persimmon, fresh hazelnuts and herbs. Although this has 13.5% alcohol, it feels almost weightless, so vibrant and delicate are the flavors. Where else can you find that? Then comes the long, super-clean finish that pulls you back to the glass for more! Drink or hold."

2019: James Suckling: 96/100 Points "A great dry Pinot Blanc that has so many subtle nutty nuances. I love the creamy-dreamy texture that caresses the palate, without the slightest hint of warmth from alcohol. Then it glides off effortlessly in the direction of the horizon. And these vines were only 15 years old, so they’re just coming into their best age! From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold." | Robert Parker: (91-92)/100 "The 2019 Herrenletten Weissburgunder opens with a clear, elegant and aromatic bouquet of white fruits and a subtle surlie aroma. Intense, fresh and fruity on the palate, with ripe pear aromas at this early stage, this is a refined, elegant, intense, juicy and persistent Pinot Blanc with stimulating salinity and perfect balance. Tasted as a sample in April 2020." | Cup der Gourmetwelten WEISS 2021: 93/100 points | vinum wine competition "Best of Germany": Winner in the category "White Burgundy dry varieties": "Lemon tart, also lemongrass on the nose. Well structured, fine yellow-white fruit notes, also wet stone, salt marshes, as well as salt capers and rosemary. On the palate, a fine, sweet tip such as meringue stands out. A multi-layered wine with enormous potential." | vinum wine competition "Best of Germany": Winner in the category "White Burgundy dry" and "BEST BUY between 20 and 30 francs": "Lemon tart, also lemongrass on the nose. Well structured, fine yellow-white fruit notes, also wet stone, salt marshes, as well as salt capers and rosemary. On the palate, a fine sweet tip such as meringue stands out. A multi-layered wine with enormous potential." Drinking recommendation: 2021 to 2035 | Ronn Wiegand: 4+/5 "Terrific Pinot Blanc from Müller-Catoir. The Herrenletten is full bodied and intensely flavored (white peach, pear, honeysuckle, guava, passion fruit); a wine that is crisp, balanced, and very long on the finish. Still youthful; warrants further aging." | falstaff "Weissburgunder Trophy 2022": 92/100 Points

2018: James Suckling: 95/100 Points "Bright citrus, roasted herbs, chamomile and fresh honeysuckle come into view. Medium-bodied with some attractive fleshiness to the palate and a boisterous line of building acidity. A wine with outstanding tension and depth of fruit. Linear and precise. Drink now." | Top Ten wine enos Pinot Blanc Challenge 2020 | Robert Parker: 92/100 Points "Entirely fermented in oak (500-liter barrels), the 2018 Herrenletten Weissburgunder is intense and fruity on the bright and elegant yet deep nose that displays some ginger and hazelnut blossom notes. Intense and round on the palate, this is a dense, structured and still extremely young Pinot Blanc with lush fruit, good freshness and mineral grip. Very elegant, persistently salty and very long and promising." | RESTAURANT WINE® Issues #190-193: 4+/5 stars "2018 was also a top vintage for Pinot Blanc (Weissburgunder), as this Herrenletten reflects. It is a fairly rich wine with excellent flavor (apple, pear, lemon, passion fruit, roasted nut), full body, fine balance, and a lingering finish. Warrants aging. Organic. [2021-2023]"

2017: James Suckling: 95/100 | restaurantwine (Ronn Wiegand): 5/5 stars - "The Herrenletten Pinot Blanc is first rate: an elegant, complex wine with full body, fine aromas/flavors (white peach, pear, lime, oak), medium richness, excellent balance, and a long finish. Needs modest aging." | Wine accompaniment at the Supperclub 2023 for "Rosella Lettuce | Parmesan | Parsley"

2016: James Suckling: 94/100

2013: Bonvinitas: 96/100, Tasting winner "Best White and Pinot Gris"
