Frauenberg - Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir from a parcel of fifty year old vines surrounded by forest high in the hills above the village of Dambach-la-Ville. This is a slightly wild, sumptuous wine and has some ooomph.

The North facing vines are planted over a complex mix of granite and manganese, lending freshness and a deep, stony minerality. The grapes were fermented as whole bunches for a fortnight, before being pressed to a single oak barrel for a year of rest.
