About this wine
A biodynamic Pinot Noir from old vines in Ammerschwihr, Alsace, aged in old Alsatian foudres with zero sulphur addition, producing a wine of delicate light ruby colour, precise red fruit aromatics, and the fine tannin and fresh acidity that defines great Pinot Noir.
Open 15 minutes before serving.
Tasting notes
Light ruby red with a translucent core. Delicate aromas of cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, earthy undertones, and a touch of spice. Light to medium-bodied with bright natural acidity, fine tannins, and flavours of redcurrant, pomegranate, subtle smokiness, and forest floor. Elegant and expressive, an Alsatian Pinot that earns comparison with its Burgundian counterpart without trying to be Burgundy.
Goes with
Roast poultry, mushroom dishes, grilled salmon, soft cheeses like Brie and Camembert, lentil or beetroot salads.
