Natalie's Score: 89/100

Königschaffhauser Steingrüble 2018 Pinot Noir is a dry, vibrant Baden Qualitätswein zesty with ripe red berries, dark cherry, dark chocolate, incense and cedar spice flavours on the palate. Great acidity for food on this typical Kaiserstühler PN. Pair with baked morels stuffed with herbed cream cheese.

Pinot Noir food pairings: sweet-sour pot roast, spaetzle, red cabbage, frankfurters, goat cheese.

Reviews and Ratings

Craig Haynes - WSET3 FWS SWS IWS rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Candied red berries and cedar spices defined this approachable Pinot Noir’s aroma flavour profile. Medium bodied (despite being 14% ABV), discrete tannins, pleasingly dry. Classified as Qualitätswein under Germany's wine laws, this red was crafted in crafted in Baden, the country's third largest wine region.
