United power and harmony:

2022 Merlot dry, 15 months matured in barriques, Collection Imperial, Qualitaetswein Baden, 14% alcohol, Waldulmer, Winzergenossenschaft, 95 bonvinitas Points: Deep fruity scent with notes of cherry compote, blackberries, chocolate, in the underground accompanied with a hint of gingerbread; emphatically fruity on the palate, gently peppery; very strong finish with ripe tannins and harmonious peppery notes.

Which accompanies you for a long time:

Red wine cuvée dry, barrique matured, Collection Imperial, Qualitaetswein Baden, 14%, Waldulmer Winzergenossenschaft, 96 bonvinitas Points: On the nose hints of cherry jam, dark chocolate, tobacco, a tick of juniper; on the palate a full-bodied red wine that is with you with pronounced length, slightly peppery; very pleasant finish, well-ripened tannins, a tad smoky.

Both wines go very well with strong meat dishes, even spicier ones.

The wines show that great red wines of international type also grow in Germany at the Black Forest’s edge. Because the members of the Waldulmer cooperative not only plant Pinot Noir, but also Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon for such wines. With 100 hectares and 120 members with good cohesion, the community practically forms a large estate. It is noteworthy that Waldulm is located in a side valley of the Acher and the vineyards, contrary to the usual ones on the edge of the Black Forest, mainly look southeast towards the ridge of the Black Forest and soak up the morning sun. 

The reviews represent my own opinion parallel to the bonvinitas wine awards. Look the 100 point bonvinitas evaluation system used by both sides.
