AM KREUZ Weissburgunder + Chardonnay

2022

Traubensorten Chardonnay, Weissburgunder

It's a shame, the 2022 is the last “Am Kreuz” as we know and love it. For this reason alone, and of course much more because it is a sensationally good wine, you should not hesitate for a second and get the last bottles.

A few months ago, rather by chance, we opened a bottle of “Am Kreuz” on a winter evening and baked some classic tarte flambée with it. At first the wine was a bit restrained, but that's not particularly surprising, because Wasenhaus wines like air and a little time. But after the “Formation Lap” it was as if we had a completely different wine in our glass:

The aromas, crystal clear, super clean, and this depth, this complexity of scent, this mineral note, everything combines to create an unimaginably exquisite bouquet. It is clear that when such a scent wafts through your nose, you can't wait to taste the wine. You want to find out whether it also delivers on the palate what it promises on the nose. So, what do you think? No, it doesn't. It even exceeds expectations – at least ours. The wine is powerful, but it is not one of those musclebound wines, no, it is elegant and a delicate athlete, whose physique is more reminiscent of a long-distance runner than a weightlifter. The wine flows silkily over the palate, with a wonderful harmony, and at the end it releases an energy and minerality that amazes us. Wow, this is a really great wine.
