Adams Wein Ingelheim Spatburgunder

Spatburgunder is German for Pinot Noir, cool right?  Interestingly Germany is the third largest Pinot Noir producer in the world, behind France (of course) and the US, but we never really see the wine as they drink it all in Germany.  Adams Wein is a hot new winery in the Ingelheim region of the Rheinhessen, specialising in Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

In their words - This is our Ingelheim Pinot Noir, a local wine of the new generation. The old vines stand in a south and southwest facing plot and extract with their root system the vineyard soil, which is strongly interspersed with lime weathering. The result is maximally reduced, dynamic and powerful.  Joy of drinking, complexity, expression, dynamics and thus more liveliness of the wines.
