This Pinot Noir from Alsace epitomises the biodynamic philosophy of Domaine Albert Mann, a historic partnership of two winegrowing families with a winemaking tradition dating back to the 17th century. The grapes come from the 25 hectares in Wettolsheim, which are cultivated with meticulous care.<\/p>\n
In the glass, it presents an intense, powerful ruby red colour with a dark, almost impenetrable core - a visual announcement of the concentration that this wine has to offer.<\/p>\n
The flavour unfolds a precise Burgundy bouquet<\/strong> with remarkable intensity. Dark cherries and wild berries (especially blackberries and blueberries) dominate, underpinned by a fine spiciness of juniper and cloves. Subtle notes of undergrowth and forest floor give the wine an additional dimension that impressively reflects the hot, dry 2022 vintage in Alsace.<\/p>\n The palate reveals a Pinot Noir with impressive structure and density. The juicy, dark red fruit is accompanied by a moderating, well-integrated acidity that gives the wine balance. The polished, silky tannins<\/strong> are finely interwoven and allow the wine to glide elegantly over the palate. The finish is warm, lingering and characterised by hedonistic fruitiness - a reflection of the vintage, which fully shows its power and maturity here.<\/p>\n This Pinot Noir full of character harmonises perfectly with Roast duck breast<\/strong>, Game dishes with cranberry sauce<\/strong> or matured soft cheese<\/strong>. Also to Mushroom risotto<\/strong> with truffles, it offers an excellent accompaniment.<\/p>\n The 2022 vintage is a remarkably expressive representative of the Alsatian terroir, translating the warmth of the vintage into power and richness without losing the elegance typical of the variety. A outstanding ambassador<\/strong> for the potential of Pinot Noir in Alsace, which has both drinking maturity and development potential.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Palate<\/h3>\n
