Pinot Noir Gumpoldskirchen Alte Reben

Pale to medium ruby. The nose begins with a hint of truffles, giving way to dark cherry and raspberry scents with a touch of spiciness. Crisp acidity and a low, pleasant tannins on the long and enduring finish.

At the foot of Anninger Mountain, at an elevation of 260 metres, lies the Grillenhügel (“cricket-hill”) vineyard. The loamy and sand soil with lime inclusions is home to a various selection of Pinot Noir vines. These plants are over 20 years old and bring expressive fruit flavours and great complexity in this wine.

Spontaneous fermentation in big oak vats between 28°C and 30°C, skin contact between 21 and 24 days, aged in French oak barrels of different size for 16 months (60% new oak)
