August Kesseler Pinot Noir Rheingau Daily August 2023 750 ML

92 pts Suckling "What an amazing entry-level pinot noir. This has everything we look for in sophisticated wines from this grape variety. Complex nose with stacks of rooty complexity and terrific black cherry and forest berry aromas. Wonderful silky texture on the beautifully balanced, medium-bodied palate. Long finish with so many spice, licorice and rooty nuances. Drink or hold. Screw cap." 91 pts Vinous "The 2022 Pinot Noir The Daily August was sourced from Assmannshausen, Lorch and Rüdesheim. Dark cherry is clothed in slight smoke on the nose. The palate opens sumptuously and smoothly, unfurling like velvet. Fine, dense, smooth tannins meet ripe dark cherry fruit, all framed with fine freshness. This totally over-delivers for an entry-level Pinot Noir. (Bone-dry)"
