Allemagne - QbA Pfalz

Domaine Neiss 2018

€640 Flacon de 10cl

Pinot Noir, or spätburgunder as it’s called in Germany, grows very well in this climate, producing light and fruity wines. This vintage 2018 has a deep ruby colour with a raspberry pink rim, and a characteristic Pinot Noir bouquet. Aromas of cherries in kirsch combine beautifully with peppery notes, hints of forest floor and a subtle touch of tobacco for a red wine with perfect harmony. The palate reveals delicious cherry flavours coupled with a peppery note and very nice full mouthfeel.
