Pinot Noir Wines

Full-bodied, velvety, slightly sweet

The Pinot Noir taste is full-bodied and velvety. In addition, there is a fruity aroma and nuances of almonds. A typical Pinot Noir can be recognized by its slightly sweet scent of cherry, blackberry, strawberry, plum or blackcurrant. Riper Pinot Noir can also have earthy notes, wines from the barrique can also have hints of vanilla and cinnamon. Traditionally not color-intensive, mild, low-tannin and of rather rusty red color, Pinot Noir in strong red, with more tannins, less acid and short storage in a small oak barrel correspond to the zeitgeist. Mainly  developed as dry red wine, there are also semi-dry Pinot Noir and Pinot Noir Rosé wines. The grape variety is also suitable for the production of refreshing sparkling wine. In France, for example, Pinot Noir serves as a blending partner for champagne production.

Genealogy and name collection urium: From Pinot Noir to Pinot Noir

The

genealogy of Pinot Noir is not yet sufficiently developed. According to more recent analyses, the red wine comes from a wild vine. Originally only seemingly native to Burgrund, the Romans cultivated it more than 2000 years ago. Outside Burgundy it can be found today in the Loire Valley, Alsace but also in Languedoc. In addition, it is the best of the two approved red wine varieties in champagne

.

In Germany, the variety was planted in the Rheingau from the 13th century. Today it occupies a vineyard area of around 12,000 hectares

Top quality from ambitious winemakers

The king of wines is demanding. Its early ripening, thin-skinned berries are sensitive to excessive temperatures, drought, wind and rot. They thrive best in temperate climates, on calcareous soils interspersed with marl and clay, respectively. The Côte-d 'Or provides perfect conditions for Pinot Noir, which is why the best French red wine from the grape comes exactly from this area. The German red wine is also produced in top quality. Baden, the Ahr, the Rheingau and the Pfalz are the most important German cultivation areas of the Pinot Noir. Here ambitious winemakers are dedicated to the production of dense, extract-rich wines with barrique maturation. Especially products from the 2015 vintage make wine connoisseurs' hearts beat faster.
