Johannes Kopp has set his goals single-mindedly:<br />

the estate with its 30 hectares<br />

of vineyards is in conversion to organic<br />

viticulture. In September 2020 Kopp<br />

started construction of a new winery building<br />

with a modern wine shop, restaurant and a<br />

barrique cellar open to visitors – all of that<br />

with an unobstructed view of the Upper Rhine<br />

plain. All these developments, however, should<br />

not make us neglect the wines: The Spätburgunders<br />

are striking and made to last, the Rieslings<br />

are subtle and full of character, the Chardonnay<br />

“Altenberg” is dense and phenolic.<br />

Compliments!<br />

92 2018 »Terrassenlage« Sinzheim Klostergut<br />

Fremersberg Feigenwäldchen Riesling tr.<br />

Individual nose with notes of apple peel, spicy wood and spices<br />

like caraway and anise. Lean and tightly-built. On the palate<br />

there is good extract, phenolic and mineral elements. Unconventional<br />

and with character, good potential for further<br />

development. 13 Vol.-%. cork, €€€<br />

92 2018 Sinzheim Altenberg Chardonnay tr.<br />

The nose still bears witness to the wood ageing, some woody<br />

perfume notes and toasted aromas, plus yellow fruit, quince<br />

and some pumpkin. Strong and compact structure on the<br />

palate, shows density and volume, but also phenolic and<br />

mineral notes. Can increase further, good substance.<br />

13 Vol.-%. cork, €€<br />

93 2017 Varnhalt Sommerhalde<br />

Spätburgunder trocken<br />

Lots of Pinot Noir on the nose, cherry, fine toasted aromas,<br />

some blood orange and forest nuances. Very good balance<br />

on the palate, power and freshness gives harmony, finely-chiselled<br />

acidity, demanding tannins that will further develop.<br />

Mineral and youthful. 13 Vol.-%. cork, €€€<br />

93 2017 Sinzheim Klostergut Fremersberg<br />

Feigenwäldchen Spätburgunder trocken<br />

Cherry in the closed nose, smoke and mineral hints. Smooth<br />

on the palate, fine juiciness, slenderly-built with good freshness<br />

and finely-intergrated acidity, distinct minerality. Potential!<br />

Only available in magnum and double magnum bottles.<br />

12 Vol.-%. cork, €€€<br />

91 2018 Varnhalt Röderswald<br />

Weissburgunder trocken<br />

89 2019 »Lösslehm« Weissburgunder trocken<br />

88 2019 Grauburgunder trocken<br />

91 2017 Varnhalt Sonnenberg<br />

Spätburgunder trocken<br />

90 2017 »Roter Porphyr« Spätburgunder tr.<br />

90 2017 Spätburgunder trocken<br />

Cherry and spices on the nose, herbs, raises expectations.<br />

With clear fruit on the palate, lean, tight and compact,<br />

seems natural and a little wild, also good density and distinctive,<br />

grippy tannins. A lot of Pinot for the money and a<br />

boon at the table! 12,5 Vol.-%, screwcap, €€<br />
