You know Pinot Noir. But do you know Spätburgunder?
For years, wine insiders have known that German Pinot Noir offers Burgundian-level quality at a fraction of the price. But in this episode we’re blowing this industry secret wide open courtesy of Zack Musick (German Wine Collection) who joins us for a fresh take on one of the world’s most beloved grapes. From unexpected flavor profiles (think bone broth, mushrooms, and spice) to why an eagle on the label is a true marker for quality, we’re digging into how Pinot Noir expresses itself in Germany outside of its classic regions and why it’s often considered the ultimate “terroir grape,” capable of transparently reflecting the soil, climate, and place it’s grown. Plus, we’ve got all your food pairings ranging from classic duck to Philly cheesesteaks and Amanda’s unexpected (but highly effective) Costco salad and chicken schnitzel hack.
