- 2 Dec 2022 4:29 PM
They will explain what the wine is made of and how, why do we suggest it and where you can buy for how much. Our first wine is Jammertal Ars Poetica Pinot Noir 2017 from Villány.
What
100% Pinot Noir – a variety rare to find in the southernmost wine region of Hungary. It needs extra attention and should be planted carefully to avoid the extra heat and the record amount of sunny hours.
How
50% of the wine matured in 500L, medium toast, second use French oak, while 50% aged in stainless steel. Oak ageing took 12–15 months.
Why
They managed to taste it recently and we can recommend this elegant, balanced, exciting wine from the bottom of our heart.
“The nose opens with dark chocolate, dried sour cherry and sweet spices – like clove. The palate continues with similar tones: the wine is fiery and its complexity fills our mouth. After some aeration a touch of cardamom is added to the aromas, which goes on in the flavours with some pronounced blackberry notes. Medium acidity in perfect balance with its alcohol integrated into the texture. The aftertaste is dominated by some subtle chocolate notes.”
What to pair with
Ideal with duck and goose plates, dishes with mushroom and red fruit sauce.
