For the seventh straight year, Fritz Becker has made not only Germany 's finest pinot noir but three of its best red wines from 2007, arguably the greatest vintage this estate has ever bottled. The only other pinot noir producer in the country who can hold a candle to Fritz, as he is called by friends, and his son of the same name, is Bernhard Huber from Baden In Germany itself, the top wine below is the only one sold with the French name, pinot noir; all the rest are labeled spatburgunder, which is the German word for the same variety. If you have never heard of this estate, buy one of the Grosses Gewachs below and compare it blind with a 2007 grand cru from Burgundy You won't be disappointed.
