Wasenhaus - Spätburgunder 2023

The entry level Pinot comes from mostly sandy and loess soils of different origins. Fermented 100% destemmed given the phenolic ripeness was not there an open-top fermenter - fermentation between 15 and 18 days and aged in used French oak for about 14 months. Very good savoury edge - nearly tomato like. 

Bright red fruits: cherry, strawberry; some red plum. There can be more subtle notes: herbal backdrops, maybe underbrush or earth; maybe a hint of spice or oak but generally subdued, well integrated.

The wine is characterized by red fruit notes, slightly herbaceous, dry, light body, and is said to pair well with red sauce dishes, roast white meats, and meaty fish.
