Markowitsch Pinot Noir 2024 13% Vol. 0,75l

The Markowitsch Pinot Noir is a finely structured, elegant red wine that perfectly captures the finesse and complexity of this sensitive grape variety. Pinot Noir thrives in the gentle hills around Hoeflein in the Austrian Carnuntum region, where the temperate climate and special soil conditions offer outstanding conditions for Burgundy varieties. The cooler Ried Scheibner and Ried Kirchtal sites in particular, characterized by limestone-rich subsoils, create ideal conditions for this delicate, precise Pinot Noir.

The grapes are selected by hand from mid to late September, ensuring maximum ripeness and perfect quality. Mash fermentation takes place at 27 to 29 °C in stainless steel tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation in barriques. Ageing takes place carefully in used French oak barriques to preserve the elegant structure of the wine and at the same time lend it gentle ageing aromas. With an alcohol content of 13.5% vol., this Pinot Noir is powerful, yet always fine and balanced. The wine is sealed with a natural cork, which supports its ageing potential - it has the potential to mature until at least 2030, gaining complexity and depth in the process.
