  Very bright color. At 14 abv the fear was to have a hot wine, especially because of the small extract. But none of these, really good balance, of course rather big wine with some sweetish feeling but very well balanced and refined "german" pinot fruit and some earthy notes. Still rather young and will probably gain with some further aging.

  Big, heavy bottle with a huge punt. The wine was light to medium garnet in colour and offered cherry, mixed berries, cola, earthy notes, barnyard aromas and a hint of smoke on the nose. On the palate, the wine showed cherry, mixed berries, cola, spice, earthy notes and a hint of smoke, with good, lively acidity, medium-level tannin and good length. The oak was well integrated. The wine was a little rustic but benefited from aeration and I would recommend decanting for at least one hour. A good Pinot Noir. Maybe a little overpriced.

  The wine is clear with a pale garnet core and watery rim. Developing
  
  On the nose its medium intense with aromas of: ripe red berries like redcurrant and wild strawberry, smoke and other aromas from oak, gooseberry and some spice like white pepper. Developing
  
  On the palate it is medium+ acidity and medium %, flavour intensity and body. Aromas of ripe red berries lke wild strawberry and some kirch, well integrated oak, some smoke, almost some tea, spice and some greene like gooseberry. Medium aftertaste
  
  This is a very good quality wine with potential for dirther agening, high priced. Well balanced with intens and fresh aromas, not very concentrated and the finish is a bit thin but still long. Medium+ complexity, 88-89p

  Fantastic ripe Pinot with intensely aromatic nose with spice, flowers, red and black fruit, smoke and leather. Full finish with tannins needing time but nevertheless showing well now. A wine of real class.
