Pinot Noir Cru Selection
2007
Wine description
Transparent, ruby red colour, approaching a brick-like hue. The bouquet is of cherry liqueur, excellent cask and orange peel. It has the taste of very ripe fruit, especially cherries; a fresh and lovely tartness; pleasantly balanced taste of cask, and a moment later, of peppermint. You are left with a delightfully long aftertaste of cherries.
With food
Combine it with simple red meat dishes or venison. It is excellent with mushroom dishes or with matured mountain cheeses.
Aging
Pinot Noir improves with age. However, it is suitable for drinking at all stages. Ageing potential of up to ten years.

Cru Selection
Cru Selection wines have a very rich colour, an extraordinary beautiful body, which reflects the characteristic mineral note. These non-filtered wines are also extremely persistent.
