The red wine Assmannshausen Höllenberg Pinot Noir, vintage 2016 from the winery Weingut Dr. Corvers-Kauter has been rated in 2022 by Ulrich Sautter with 94 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Pinot Noir from the region Rheingau in Germany.
Maturity already visible in the glass. Slate savouriness, rose hip, cassis, beet, dried herbs, balsamic on the nose. Juicy on the palate, fruity, supple, fine attack, followed by a mineral, savoury freshness and a great density in the extract, vibrantly tense, fine pithy phenolics, already a great pleasure, but still a long way from the end.
More about the tastingComparatively bright with mature colour on the rim. On the nose: rosehip, balsamic and savoury notes, some wood, cassis and slate. Sinewy on the palate, firm acidity and mineral tension meet a backdrop of supple, almost viscous richness. Very ripe berry flavours continue through to the finish, almost becoming raisined, in tandem with the typical Höllenberg minerality. Will be very long-lasting!

More about the tastingNeeds some air. Fragrant type: some yeast, fine slate spice, cassis, herbs, fine tannins, lots of juice, sweet palate fruit, very classic Höllenberg in its delicacy, fine acidity, not over-concentrated in the extract, but still long.
