Blauburgunder DOC 750ml Elena Walch 2022

Pinot Nero 2022
South Tyrol DOC

VINEYARDS: 100% Pinot Noir

VINIFICATION: Traditional maceration for 10 days at controlled temperature in steel barrels. Subsequent malolactic fermentation and ageing in medium French oak barrels
(22hl) and partly in steel tanks.

DEGUSTATION: The Pinot Noir Elena Walch presents itself with a clear, fresh ruby red. A fruity play of aromas with red berries, cherries and raspberries as well as spicy
notes with some white pepper characterise the nose. On the palate, the wine convinces with a juicy structure and inviting freshness, with soft, velvety tannins, discreet spice
in the background as well as a youthfully elegant finish.

TERROIR: An interesting combination of vineyards in fresher sites between 400m a.s.l. up to 600m a.s.l.. Limestone and porphyry soils in south-eastern and south-western
exposure. Harvested and selected by hand with the utmost care.

LESE 2022: An excellent vintage 2022 awaits you! Thanks to the warm, stable summer, grapes of the very best health and with balanced values have reached our cellar.
The 2022 wine year started with a warm spring, which led to an early start of flowering. The following summer was consistently dry and warm, and hot in mid-summer. The
drought did not lead to any problems, not least thanks to our irrigation systems and meteostations in the vineyard. The warm summer months resulted in very healthy
grapes of very good quality and ripeness. The acidity levels were somewhat lower due to the vintage, but well balanced and were supported by targeted foliage work in the
summer, as well as a somewhat earlier harvest. The first grapes were harvested at the end of August - as always completely by hand. Overall, the wines are complex, with
great structure and very good fruit.

Serving Suggestions: With hearty dishes such as game, dark meat and piquant cheeses.
