Hanspeter Ziereisen left carpentry in 1991 to pursue his passion for winemaking in Baden's warm southern Black Forest, where conditions resemble Burgundy with rich limestone soils and Mediterranean sunshine. The 'Jaspis 10^4' is a special selection of Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir) from one of Baden's most unconventional rebels. Now six years old, this 2018 shows the elegant structure and ripe red fruit typical of Baden's warmer climate compared to cooler German regions. Ziereisen minimizes chemical treatments and filtration, letting terroir speak clearly. The wine displays cherry and plum with subtle earth notes, medium tannins, and the freshness that distinguishes fine Pinot from over-extraction. Ready now for current drinking with food.

Professional Reviews

Robert Parker

RP 95

"The 2018 Jaspis Spätburgunder 10⁴ is only the fourth edition of this rare and very expensive Pinot Noir that comes from 30- to 40-year-old Spätburgunder vines planted in a density of 10,000 vines per hectare. This is a selection of the very best barrels, and the wine opens with a pure, highly finessed, elegant, fresh and spicy-peppery as well as floral bouquet of red cherries, berries and limestone. Sweet and dense on the palate, this is a full-bodied, very ripe and textured Spätburgunder with an intense and aromatic finish that is still tight due to crunchy tannins and will benefit from further bottle aging. 13.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork stopper." -Stephan Reinhardt

German Wines

Is there a better grape than Riesling? Is there a better value? Its fruit purity, its perfume, and its mineral nuance are all unparalleled. And for centuries, the top German Rieslings were priced accordingly: at least as expensive as the top red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy. But nowadays you could spend a lifetime exploring Germany’s great Riesling-producing regions while staying well within your budget. You might take an occasional break to try Germany’s other white grapes or perhaps a glass of Spätburgunder (the local name for Pinot Noir). It’s time to get started!
