Surprisingly rich and dark for a Pfalz PN, I would not recognize it as German if tasting blind. Troyes very hard to please, a bd at the end it succeeds.

Very "Burgundian like" German (Pfaltz) Pinot Noir. Bright cherry flavors. Crisp with laser sharp acidity. Elegant Pinot Noir that my guests could not believe was German.

Madagascar vanilla and allspice aromatics, rounded out body with a prickly and almost effervescent acidity. Cranberry, red apple cleanliness, onslaught of berries complex the profile with a classy oak finish that has a crisp dryness to it. Solid Pinot! 👍🏻

Fabulous Spätburgunder! A great balance of earth and fruit. Forest floor and mushroom on the attack with a hint of overripe strawberry. Balanced acidity and medium-length finish (>15s/<30s).

Paired this with lemon butter salmon and a mushroom risotto.

Leather and damp earth on the nose, musty and funky. Sour cherry on the palate. Light-mediun body and acid. Pale ruby color. Good entry-level old world pinot.
