On the nose, the 2019 Pinot Noir Tradition is pure, intense and elegant in its stewed cherry, red cassis and floral aromas. On the palate, this is a round and intense, very charming Pinot with a dense texture and fine but persistent structuring and clearing tannins that lead to a long, fruit-intense and crispy finish. It's quite generous but impressive in style and elegance and definitely more complex than the 2020. Like the 2019 Passion Pinot, the Tradition also represents the coolish terroir of Malans and Graubünden along with the rather coolish/classical vintage. 13.5% stated alcohol. Diam cork. Tasted in January 2022. ... More details

green grapes

Varietal: Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir grapes have been cultivated in and around the Burgundy region of France for centuries, where they have long been favored by vintners for their wide range of flavors, their thin skins and for producing wines which have light, smooth tannins, and a beautiful garnet red color Whilst they remain one of the flagship varietals of this special region, their wide popularity and recent status as a fashionable 'romantic' varietal has led to them being planted in almost every wine producing country in the world. However, the Pinot Noir demands a huge amount of care and attention from the wineries that wish to grow it, as this varietal is particularly susceptible to various forms of mildew and rot. Despite this, the grape is otherwise a favorite with wineries for the fact that it requires little extra effort once it begins fermentation. Pinot Noir is also widely known for producing some of the world's most famous sparkling wines, being one of two key grapes for the production of Champagne, and several other sparkling varieties.
