Good Red, Great Grey

If you want to compare a selection of wines..start at the bottom and work up is the general rule.
The 'RS' is certainly not the ground floor..but this 'R' is a few steps (moneywise)..upwards.

















Salwey Eichberg 'R' Spätburgunder 2006
Baden, Germany
A little disappointed..rather reserved..trace of cherry..lighter style..some vanilla...fresh..needed more airing maybe...so don't hold me to the points
Points 16.5

















Salwey Oberrotweiler Henkenberg Grauer Burgunder
Großes Gewächs *** 2007
Baden, Germany
After my reserved tasting notes on sister Weissburgunder..I may go over the top here.
Golden colour...complex aromas..lovely ripe fruit..'Pins & Needles on Cream'..wonderful minerals fill the mouth...
ripe pears and quince..an absolute beauty..and without doubt the best I have tasted. 2007 shows tops again.
