On the nose: juicy red berries, warm earth, delicate pepper notes On the palate: full-bodied, juicy, fine-grained tannins, dark chocolate on the finish. Long aftertaste, mouth-filling and still pure elegance in the glass. Location & Terroir Vineyard: In our best plots in Assmanshäuser Höllenberg and Assmanshäuser Frankenthal, original vines from Burgundy were planted in the 1960s, which today form the basis of our great Pinot Noir. Terroir: slate weathering.
