In den Kreuthern
Pinot Noir, single vineyard, 2018, dry
Austrian organic wine from Loidesthal, Niederösterreich
This Pinot Noir vinyard is growing on chalky Loam soils on top of the Kreuthern hills. There the vines are exposed to cool breezes which defines the distinctive nose and character of this wine. Fully loaded, it offers red berried fruit like rose hip , rooibus aromas, and crushed pepper. Subtly earth tones gives this Pinot Noir a discrete profil and a well-textured , velvety tannin structure. A balancing act between freshness, structure and depth.
