Character and aromas

When opening the bottle, you are greeted by a scent palette full of ripe red berries, cherries and a hint of raspberry, with earthy tones of mushrooms and a hint of roasted spices in the background. The taste is smooth and velvety, with fine tannins and subtle wood influences thanks to the maturation in barriques. The wine has a light touch of vanilla and an elegant minerality, which is beautifully balanced by its fresh acidity.

Goes well with

This Pinot Noir is versatile at the table. It is excellent with dishes such as duck breast, grilled salmon or a spicy mushroom risotto. It also provides a perfect interplay of flavours with a drinks platter with soft cheeses and charcuterie.

About the winemaker

The wine is the result of a close collaboration with Hannes Bergdoll from the Palatinate, who has mastered biodynamic grape cultivation down to the last detail. The grapes are carefully picked by hand from chalky soils, with extra attention to the bunches that absorb all the energy of the plant at the end of the season. Through traditional vinification with skin maceration and maturation in French oak barrels, Hannes knows how to get the best out of the Pinot Noir grape.

Conclusion

The Pinot Noir Barrique 2022 is a wine that perfectly combines finesse and pleasure. Ideal for a relaxed dinner or a cozy moment with friends. A Pinot Noir as you want it: soft, elegant and simply very tasty.
