The grapes for this Pinot Noir thrive on calcareous loam soils on medium hills (350-650 m above sea level). Marjun takes its name from the hill of calcareous scree that towers above the vineyards (derived from the pre-Romanesque Indo-European word "marra," meaning scree). A long winter delayed the vines' spring awakening to early April. Bud break was followed by further cooling, which delayed full bloom. The turbulent season continued with a warm June and a wet July, which ideally prepared the soil for the onset of ripening. Dry weeks in August with exceptionally low night temperatures and a sunny autumn provided picture-perfect weather. Although there were brief periods of rain at the end of September and the beginning of October, many warm days and increasingly cooler nights dominated the harvest season. The harvest began about 10 days later than the usual annual average and yielded significantly lower yields. The deep white wines of 2021 delight with their pronounced freshness and particularly fine fruit aromas, while the concentrated red wines impress with a ripe tannin structure and fresh fruit body. Color: Marjun presents itself in a ruby to garnet red color and develops a harmonious aroma of wild berries in the glass. Aroma: Plum and cherry, underlined by spicy herbal notes. This fruity and juicy Pinot Noir, which impresses with a delicate structure and delicate tannins, is cool and taut on the palate. Taste: The profile of Marjun is rounded off by a refreshing acidity, which hints at the high altitudes of its vineyards. On the finish, this elegant Pinot Noir impresses with juicy fruitiness and persistent spice.
