The estate’s vintages are harvested from the younger surrounding vineyards of Saulheim, cultivated in limestone-loaded and loess-loam rich soils.
Grapes were very carefully selected for this wine for fragrance, acidity, and ripeness. This is a more extracted wine than traditional German Pinot Noir. It displays an especially exquisite character from two years and two months in traditional French oak barrels (225l) before being bottled and left unfiltered, providing a deep and complex texture.
“The vibrant sour cherry aromas are beautifully interwoven with lovely creaminess, fine tannins and chalky minerality. I love what the energetic acidity does for the long finish of this slightly cloudy beauty. From organically grown grapes. Matured for 18 months in well-used, small oak casks. Unfiltered. Drink or hold.” – 94 Points, JamesSuckling.com
Tasting Note: Wild aromas and intense dark fruit on the nose. A hint of herbal mint, fine acidity and powerful minerality on the palate. Pure Pinot Noir! This rare and exquisite Pinot Noir is made to be savoured and shared.
