Lergenmüller Spätburgunder Angiolino

Every now and then when I taste a German Spätburgunder, especially of the likes of Becker-Landgraf, I feel that German Pinot will be next big thing in the wine world. And then I taste stuff like this and I feel happy, because it will mean that by association Becker-Landgraf will remain cheap enough for the near future that I can drink plenty of it.

2009 Weingut Lergenmüller Spätburgunder "Angiolino" - Germany, Pfalz
15% abv; 70% new Barrique and that pretty much says all that needs to be said about this wine. Massive, sweet, tarry, oaky. It has the density of a neutron star (i.e. "approximately equivalent to the mass of the entire human population compressed to the size of a sugar cube," as the always trustworthy Wikipedia describes it), it is sweet and un-refreshing despite much acidity. We Finns are supposedly able to drink even the most nasty concoctions in order to get drunk, but I'm really having trouble getting a single glass of this into my system. A wine that makes the most outrageous Cali producers seem elegant.
