Marc Josten pinot noir Glanzstuck 2016

Glanzstück is the series of wines from the better vineyards where top quality grapes are harvested at low yields. Due to the combination of the prime location and strictly selected grapes from these vineyards, these wines offer great strength, complexity and above-average storage potential. This pinot noir from the 2016 harvest, through a longer maturation, offers aromas of forest fruits, cherries, a hint of licorice and the subtle earthy side that great pinot noir shows as it ages. The taste combines ripe cherries and raspberries with layered earthy-spicy aromas, resulting in an elegant and fine aftertaste with well-balanced acids and soft tannins. Ideal to drink now or to keep for a few years to come. For the best experience, carafe and serve in a wide Burgundy glass. Highly recommended for lovers of great Pinot Noir.
