Astley Justinius Kerner 2022 (6 Bottles) Stourport-on-Severn, Worcestershire, England

£159.00
by Wines by Cellars

UK MAINLAND SHIPPING INCLUDED

Named after the German poet after which the grape variety was named, Justinius Kerner is a special edition of "Kerner". Aromatic, intense & delicious.

Made of: 100% Kerner (97% of a single tank, 2% Barrel fermented)

Tastes of: Rhubarb & Ginger compote, Apple, Quince, Ginger

Sweetness: Dry

Acidity: High, Slightly spritzy

2022 produced the ripest Kerner our vineyard has ever produced. Coming in naturally at 12.8% Abv (remembering this is a relative of Riesling), there was an intensity & complexity to this variety that we have never experienced. Spritzy and refreshing, it displays vivid flavours of rhubarb & ginger compote, with a savoury, nutty background. A fantastic aperitif, or paired with pork, fatty fish, or Japanese cuisine. A once in a decade vintage.
