Gabel Pinot Noir Kalkstein Pfalz Organic Red Wine

Description

Pinot Noir is the finicky grape prized in the pricey wines of Burgundy. But Germany also makes silky, elegant Pinots, a bit more sensibly priced too. The wines from the warmer climate of the Pfalz are particularly charming, like Gabel Pinot Noir Kalkstein Pfalz Organic. The Gabel family domaine has been creating exceptional wines since their foundation in 1665! 13th-generation Oliver Gabel is winemaker today, having trained in Baden, Burgundy and South Africa. Since returning to the family estate, he’s made Pinot his vocation and it accounts for 70% of production – Pinot Noir, Blanc and Gris. With exceptional limestone (kalkstein) soils and a protected microclimate, this Pinot Noir is supple, ripe and aromatic, while 18 months in cask lends a smoky edge.
