After ax000D near-disaster in 2000, Gunter Kunstler could give thanks for 2001, even if itx000D was a far from easy vintage given Hochheim early ripeness and so muchx000D September rain. Partly on account ofx000D pent-up demand in the German market, the estate bottled mostly dry wine thisx000D year, and I found these significantly more successful than this year off-dryx000D bottlings. Kunstler most strikingx000D 2001 material may in fact reside in the many barrels and batches of pinotx000D noir. He elected to chaptalize even hisx000D ripest pinots and to conduct numerous micro-vinifications.x000D These look on track to become, afterx000D blending, some of the strongest competition to top-class red Burgundy fromx000D anywhere in the world. (Rudi Wiest)Also recommended: 2001 Hochheimer Domdechaney Riesling Trockenx000D ($18).
