Description
The 2019 HE Dausch L’Artiste Pinot Noir is a beautifully crafted, small-production wine from one of the most exciting artisan producers in the Pfalz. The estate is known for its precision, restraint and purity of style, and the 2019 vintage reflects a cooler, more classical expression of German Pinot. It is a wine built on finesse, elegance and quiet confidence rather than overt power.
In the glass, the wine shows a pale ruby-red colour with bright clarity. Aromas are lifted and delicate, led by cherry, raspberry and cranberry, supported by subtle floral tones and gentle earthy undertones. The fragrance is refined and transparent, giving an immediate sense of the winemaker’s light touch and focus on purity.
The palate is graceful and well-poised, offering silky red-fruit flavours balanced by fine acidity and a subtle mineral edge. Notes of cherry, wild berry and soft spice mingle with hints of forest floor and cocoa, adding depth without heaviness. The tannins are smooth and beautifully integrated, allowing the wine to glide effortlessly across the palate.
While highly enjoyable now, the 2019 L’Artiste also has the structure to develop with a few years of careful cellaring. Over time the fruit will deepen and the savoury notes will emerge, creating greater complexity and a broader texture. It is an expressive wine that rewards both early drinking and patient ageing.
A superb choice for Burgundy lovers and collectors seeking precision and elegance, the 2019 L’Artiste showcases the potential of German Pinot Noir at its most refined. This is a subtle, contemplative and beautifully balanced wine that stands out for its purity and craftsmanship.
