Description

The 2020 HE Dausch Pinot Noir L’Artiste is one of the standout modern German Pinots, crafted in the Pfalz by a producer whose wines have rapidly gained a cult following. The 2020 vintage is particularly celebrated for its precision, purity and fine structure, showcasing a style that leans strongly towards top-tier, Burgundy-inspired elegance. Production is extremely limited, adding rarity and desirability to what is already a sought-after cuvée.

In the glass, the wine shows a beautiful light cherry-red colour with bright ruby highlights. The aromatics are immediately expressive, delivering layers of morello cherry, redcurrant and soft floral hints. There’s an effortless clarity to the nose — nothing overworked, nothing forced — just pure, lifted Pinot fruit with a subtle savoury depth beginning to show through.

The palate is refined and harmonious, built on supple red-fruit flavours and a silky texture. Tones of cherry, raspberry and wild berry mingle with delicate hints of cocoa and spice, creating an impression of richness without heaviness. The acidity is fresh and perfectly judged, giving the wine energy and finesse, while the tannins are finely woven, contributing to a long, graceful finish.

This is a wine that rewards both immediate drinking and patient cellaring. While already wonderfully expressive, it has the balance and structure to evolve beautifully over the next decade. Over time, expect the fruit to deepen, the texture to broaden and the aromatic complexity to reveal more forest-floor and savoury nuances typical of top-class Pinot Noir.

A superb choice for Burgundy lovers looking to explore Germany’s finest terroir-driven Pinot Noirs, and a standout bottle for collectors seeking rarity and craftsmanship. The 2020 L’Artiste combines elegance, purity and precision in a way that firmly establishes HE Dausch among the elite of modern European Pinot producers.
