Wine Review: This lively German Pinot Noir from the Pfalz region is a clear and pale garnet color. It has reserved aromas of bramble, tar, red raspberry, and some spice. On the palate it is medium bodied with medium-plus acidity. The mouthfeel is smooth, crisp, and fresh fruit focused. There are flavors of red plum, cranberry, mild oak, and kitchen spices with hints of red cherry and a touch of smoke. Fine moderate tannins linger in the dry long finish. Enjoy this easy drinking Pinot with soft cheeses and marinated mushrooms. - Mark
Winemaker Notes: This gorgeous wine has a medium-bodied ruby red color, with a complex and aromatic nose filled with red fruits and some earthy notes. The silky mouthfeel is round and filled with flavors of red berries and spice. The perfectly balanced level of acidity provides a refreshingly lively quality to the wine. Low to moderate tannins make this wine approachable and easy to drink as an apéritif or with a wide variety of foods like roasted chicken, salmon, or duck.
