What a treat to drink this wine! The nose is so deep and expressive, despite its youth, with beautiful, mature aromas of coffee, warm soil, roasted mushrooms, and just the faintest whiff of dried herbs. I probably sniffed this for a solid half hour before taking a sip; it was so compelling. Lithe and deliciously red-fruited on the palate, showing plenty of maturity and depth without sacrificing balance. Not a trace of green to be found here. The best 2004 Burg I’ve had by a country mile, and an exceptional wine in its own right.
