Josef Jamek Zweigelt Jjj

點擊次數：2496

The 2006 Zeigelt JJJ comes from the Posthaler high above Joching. With deeper black cherry fruit and more intense cinnamon spice than its younger sibling, this year’s rendition adds a smoky, resinous note yet is even brighter, juicier, and more invigorating in finish than the Mittelbergen, belying its 14% alcohol. While this will probably keep much longer, I would expect to most enjoy it over the next 2-3 years.After witnessing as a customer first hand last year the virtual absence of any remaining wine under 13% alcohol in the wonderful Jamek restaurant (and that was only in late June), it was a relief to know that 2007 provided a goodly supply. That said, as is often the case at this address – and this year even at Federspiel level – botrytis was a frequent and at times less than felicitous influence.Importer: Terry Theise Estate Selections, imported by Michael Skurnik Wines, Inc., Syosset, NY; tel.
