2021 Pinot Noir La Colline du Chateau Domaine Weinbach

The 2021 Pinot Noir La Colline du Château was harvested on the granite soils of Grand Cru Schlossberg. It was fermented with 20% whole bunches and spent 18 months in oak. The color is translucent, and the nose opens with ripe mulberry and just a lick of vanilla—tender, fresh and bright. A little oak on the palate clouds the fruit, while the 2021's freshness presents as luminous brightness. The fine tannins have a gentle crunch. The aromatic purity of mulberry shines right through to the finish. (Bone-dry)

A cool and elegant pinot noir with fine sour cherry and red currant fruit. The discreet tannins on the sleek and medium-bodied palate give this a clear line. Delicate forest floor and licorice notes in the long, refined finish. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drink or hold.
