Colour: lively ruby red colour
Smell: Fresh animating nose with an aroma spectrum that ranges from blackberry and blueberry to the scent of kirsch to a liquorice tone and the smell of undergrowth.
Taste: On the palate, this Pinot Noir impresses with the balance of a fruity fullness and a subtle tannin structure, which give this mineral red wine a lot of elegance.

A mild winter with little snow was followed by a very dry and mild spring. Fortunately, a rainy and cool May followed, so that the urgently needed water reserves could be replenished. The flowering of the vines was slightly delayed by the cool temperatures in April and May.

In the warm summer months of June and July, there was sufficient rainfall, which led to a slightly higher fungal pressure in Peronospora and Oidium. However, major crop losses could be avoided thanks to many years of experience and professional action. A hot spell in August slowed down the ripening of the grapes for a short time. After abundant rainfall at the end of August, late summer was stable and the autumn days were very beautiful. A good harvest, which began on September 4 with Sauvignon Blanc, was the result.

The 2023 vintage presents itself with fresh, fruity wines with slightly lower alcohol levels and can be classified as a good to very good vintage.
