  A home brand Pinot from Wein & Co, a very successful wine merchant chain in Austria, produced by the Heinrich Winery.
  Very clear dark reflexes, still ruby red colour. Fragrances of flowers as well as burnt almonds. Hints of cherries, too. For an Austrian Pinot it got a rather cold character. Not as broad as many Austrian state of the art Pinots. The prime flavour is dominated by dark cherries and dark forest berries. Its acid is rather weak. The tannins are still present and a bit hard. I would not call this one bone dry. There might be a bit too much fruit sweetness. So far so satisfying. Now the only real problem. The lenght of the finish in mediorce, maybe even distressingly short. Price is still okay.
