Tasting note Angel Pinot Noir
Light red wine from the French Alsace with a fresh aroma of light red fruit. Thanks to the juicy taste, this wine is very tasty as an aperitif (or even cool). Also good for cold dishes and cold meats.
Description
The Alsace is a very well-known supplier of white wines. However, there is also a limited production of red wines from the pinot noir grape. Because of the special, very sheltered location of the Alsace, the region is rather warm and dry. This makes the pinot noir grape thrive despite the relatively northern location. Wine producer Fernand Engel has already switched to organic grape growing years ago. This has led to his wines having even more concentration than before. The pinot noir is because of its smooth and fresh character very suitable to drink something cool. Since 2006, all Engel vineyards have received the organic Ecocert certificate.
