Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir is one of the oldest grape varieties to be cultivated for the purpose of making wine. it was cultivated for wine by the ancient Romans as early as the first century AD. Great Pinot Noir creates a lasting impression on the palate. Its aroma is often one of the most complex of all wines and can be intense with a ripe-grape or black cherry aroma. It is full-bodied and rich but not heavy, high in alcohol, yet neither acidic nor tannic, and very flavourful in spite of its delicacy. The most appealing quality of Pinot Noir is its soft, velvety texture. Unlike darker red wines, Pinot Noir does not have a long bottle life and tends to reach its peak at five to eight years. Common aromas and flavours identified with Pinot Noir include cherry, strawberry, raspberry, ripe tomato, violet, rose petal, sassafras, rosemary, cinnamon, caraway, peppermint, rhubarb, beet, oregano, green tomato, green tea or black olive.
