Claus Preisinger Pinot Noir Weinland 2017
$59
A very light style, with herbaceous character up front and racy notes of crushed strawberry and wild cherry. Silky in texture, with light tannins, this is very elegant, yet expressive and intense. Beautiful acidity gives this a fresh feel overall. Best from 2021 through 2027. 200 cases made, 20 cases imported.

Grape

Pinot Noir
This popular red grape originated in Burgundy but has spread across the New World. Like its white Burgundian counterpart Chardonnay, Pinot Noir is early-budding, early-ripening and thin-skinned. The sites where it tends to thrive can experience tough growing conditions, which lead to more rigorous fruit selection and lower yields. This is one of the reasons that high-quality Pinot Noir often carries a higher price tag than other wines.
