Frauenberg Pinot Noir

2022

Pinot Noir from a gorgeous parcel of fifty year old vines surrounded by forest high in the hills above the village of Dambach-la-Ville. They are planted over a complex mix of granite and manganese and face north, lending freshness and a deep, stony minerality. The grapes were fermented as whole bunches for a fortnight, before being pressed to a single barrel for a year of rest. Light, bright and lifted, this is a wild expression of the grape that is all tart red berries, smoke and stones.
