Pinot Noir Alsace Tradition Organic, Emile Beyer

Name: Pinot Noir Alsace Tradition Organic, Emile Beyer
SKU: 35040

Pinot Noir is the only red grape variety authorised in Alsace; here, in the relatively dry climate to the east of the Vosges Mountains it produces light, fruit-led red wines. The grapes, from plots on limestone soils, are de-stemmed and fermented with native yeasts. Maceration lasts two weeks and regular pumping over to extract compounds from the skins takes place. The malolactic fermentation takes place in stainless steel, and the wine is aged on the fine lees for about a year. Light and refreshing it shows bright, red fruit flavours.

Pinot Noir

Pee-noe Nwahr

A temperamental thin skinned grape and difficult to grow, when produced of any quality it demands high prices. The thin skin means it's very light in colour body and tannin, it characteristically has searing acidity and full lingering flavours of raspberry, strawberry, cherry, violets and sweet spice.

Cherry
Mushroom
Raspberry

Only deep rooting vines in living soil enable all the subtleties of a wine with a strong identity to be expressed. This is why the Emile Beyer winery believe that a commitment to organic winemaking is essential. The relationship between a wine and the environment that produces it is an intimate one. It’s as much about history and culture as geology and climate. They see the role of a winemaker as being a creator of emotion, revealing in the wine, the essence of its origin.

The Country

France

Following on from a fantastic vintage the year before, French vineyards endured a mixed bag of weather conditions in the early part of the growing season followed by a long, hot summer which produced some memorable wines, even to rival to the excellence of the previous year.
