Natural Alsace Pinot Noir in the 1 litre bottle. This shows what's it's made for: drinking without remorse. No added sulphur, organic, semi maceration carbonique.
Light in colour and 12.5% only.
Lightest funk (smell of old cooked potatoes), cassis, juicy raspberries, cherries. Some dried mint. Hint of pickled beet root. Violets. Later tomato ketchup mixed with fresh raspberry. Pure cherry juice palate with only lightest tannins. Raspberry takes over. Feels to have light RS but chemical analysis given shows only 0.5g/l. Dried hibiscus and cherry with higher skin ratio aftertaste. Change from cherries to ketchup took place within 5 minutes. This will be interesting... Light smoke coming in. Tannins getting stronger. — 9 years ago
Gaz résiduel qui apporte fraîcheur. Profil aromatique fermentaire. Jolie acidité. Texture en bouche un poil aqueuse à mon goût. — 11 years ago
