Schafer-Frohlich Blanc de Noir Rose, Nahe, Germany 2023

Description

The 2023 Schäfer-Fröhlich Blanc de Noir Rosé from Nahe, Germany, is a striking and elegant take on Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir). Pale as a whisper with a salmon-pink shimmer, it’s vinified without skin contact from 40-year-old vines on volcanic Stromberg soils. The nose offers delicate white roses, tart cherries, and a flinty mineral edge. On the palate, it’s crisp and lively, with juicy red fruit, zesty citrus peel, and a saline grip that lingers through a refined, dry finish. Tim Fröhlich’s deft touch shines in this bright, textured wine—perfect for sipping solo or pairing with grilled fish or summer salads. Drink now through 2026.
