Martin Donatsch's 2020 Pinot Noir Passion offers a pure but very fragrant bouquet of red fruits (mainly cherries) and chalky reduction. Silky, finessed and elegant on the palate, this is a light, finessed and refreshing Pinot with a grippy and still even greenish finish. This would be too sweet if there weren't this grip. Very elegant, refined and tensioned, with good length and a cleansing astringency. Needs time. Natural cork. Tasted in Zurich in February 2022. ... More details

Plenty of floral charm here, as well as ripe cherry fruit and an appealing combination of good substance, some gentle tannins and lively acidity. Although not highly structured, this should age well. Drink or hold.
Winery
Dense Pinot red, spicy, smoky note, concentrated fruit, full, concentrated palate, noble wood note, very dense Pinot with a long-lasting finish and great aging potential. Food Pairing: Food accompaniment to braised or roasted meat or game, cheese, and various main courses.

Varietal: Pinot Noir

Whilst the Pinot Noir grape varietal has its origins in France, and is most closely associated with fine Burgundy wines, it is now grown in almost every wine producing country in the world. There are many reasons for this – the densely packed, deep black bunches of fruits are responsible for making a wide variety of excellent wines, generally agreed to be amongst the most drinkable and accessible one can find. With flavors ranging from currants and red and black berries, to more earthy, spicy notes, Pinot Noir is a versatile varietal which is revered for its relatively light body and beautifully vivid red color However, the grapes themselves are notoriously susceptible to various diseases, and struggle in fluctuating climates. This has not stopped wineries planting and cultivating these vines, though, as Pinot Noir, when grown carefully and treated properly, is a grape with a wide and increasing fan-base, and more often than not produces wonderful wines.
