Shelter Winery
Lovely Lilly Baden Pinot Noir
Baden, Germany
DIY Tasting. So bright borderline astringent on the nose. Immediate to tomato + reduction which combined with very pale ruby led to thinking this could be corvina/sangiovese.
Cherry, strawberry, cranberry, herbal, chocolate. High acid and a bitter tannic quality like almond skin. Lil funk.
Low body but high intensity/complexity.

One of the most savory wines I’ve tried. Very meaty! Good w steak.
