PINOT NOIR
2020
– Dry red wine
100% pinot noir,
single vineyard
0.75 L
13.0 ABV
Pinot noir presents itself with a bright and clear, ruby red colour and a dense texture. The distinct bouquet is delicate and reminiscent of ripe berries, as well as blackberry, plum, and cherry. This is followed by aromas of violet and red rose, which intertwine with a note of tobacco, and the whole bouquet is pleasantly rounded off by a gentle note of wood and pencil tip. The taste is gentle, perceptibly warm and dry, the acids is refreshing, and in combination with rounding, velvety tannins they shows the youthful character of the wine. An intense and elegant, structured and long-lasting wine affirms the perceptions of berries, flowers and spices on our palate.
