From the long, southeast-facing slope between Gumpoldskirchen and Guntramsdorf comes Reinisch’s 2020 Gumpoldskirchen Pinot Noir, a long-established red that was known as “Grillenhügel” before. Aged in low-toasted oak barrels of different seizes for 16 months, the 2020 offers a clear, pure, fresh and aromatic, rather coolish bouquet of ripe and concentrated red fruits intermingled with tart spicy aromas. Silky and very elegant on the palate, this is a full-bodied, refined and sustainable Pinot with finely grained tannins and a serious mineral substance and structure. The finish is pure, fresh and stimulatingly grippy. This is an excellent Pinot from Gumpoldskirchen. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in January 2023.
Regularly described as being the grape varietal responsible for producing the world's most romantic wines, Pinot Noir has long been associated with elegance and a broad range of flavors The name means 'black pine' in French, and this is due to the fact that the fruit of this particular varietal is especially dark in color, and hangs in a conical shape, like that of a pine cone. Despite being grown today in almost every wine producing country, Pinot Noir is a notoriously difficult grape variety to cultivate. This is because it is especially susceptible to various forms of mold and mildew, and thrives best in steady, cooler climates. However, the quality of the fruit has ensured that wineries and vintners have persevered with the varietal, and new technologies and methods have overcome many of the problems it presents. Alongside this, the wide popularity and enthusiasm for this grape has ensured it will remain a firm favorite amongst wine drinkers for many years to come.
Country
Austria
Archaeological evidence suggests that grapevines have been grown and cultivated in what is today modern Austria for over four thousand years, making it one of the oldest wine producing countries in the world. Over the centuries, relatively little has changed in Austrian wine, with the dominant grape varietals continuing to be Grüner Veltliner, Zweigelt, Pinot Noir and others. Austria is renowned for producing excellent and characterful dry white wines, although in the eastern part of the country, many wineries specialist in sweeter white wines made in a similar style to those of neighboring Hungary. Today, Austria has over fifty thousand hectares under vine, split over four key wine regions. The domestic wine industry remains strong, with Austrians drinking their local produce outside in the summer, and people around the world are beginning to once more rediscover this fascinating and ancient wine culture.

Plenty of juicy apricot and ripe melon fruit here, but there’s also uplifting freshness that doesn’t depend on pronounced acidity. Generous body, but no hint of heaviness in this very appealing, uncomplicated dry white. A blend of the indigenous rotgipfler and zierfandler grapes. From organically grown grapes. Drink now. Screw cap.

Luscious cherry, mulberry and toasty spice flavors highlight this juicy red that carries classic appeal. The juicy finish makes you want another sip. Good balance.
