|Quite light red colour. Bright red cherry fruit with savoury beetroot and earthy gamey notes on nose with just a flash of smoky oak. Palate is mid weight with sweet red and also black fruit, ripe tannin, lively acid and a slight earthy bitterness at the back.

Hochkirch Pinots are made in a bold earthy rich Burgundian style, quite different to the light soft red fruit styles often found in New Zealand & Australia.
