Weingut Knipser "Im Grossen Garten" Spätburgunder 2003 Pfalz, Germany (Red - Pinot Noir)A promising Pinot nose. This really does work as a red wine. Good fleshy Pinot with grip. This has thighs as well as legs. Not available in the UK |

Weingut Knipser Laumersheimer Kirschgarten Spätburgunder, Auslese 2003 Pfalz, Germany (Red - Pinot Noir)Nose is a bit closed, but suggests depth. Solid palate, but not at all clumsy, it shows good concentration of fruit, without being jammy and hides the oak well. Not available in the UK |

Weingut Knipser "Himmelsrech" Dirmsteiner Mandelpfad Riesling, Spätlese Trocken 2004 Pfalz, Germany (White - Riesling)A pungent nose, aromatic, spicy even. Some toast perhaps, smells like a sweet wine. Richness on the palate, strength but not 'hot' with it. A bold, assertive mouthful, with acidity to balance. Drink from 2006-12. Not available in the UK |
