Krauthaker Pinot Crni

Krauthaker Pinot Crni

Karuthaker Pinot Crni is from Kutjevo, Pinot Noir, matured for 13 months in previously used and new (15 percent) Bordeaux barrique oak barrels, designated as quality wine with a Protected Designation of Origin (AOC), dry, 13.5 % alcohol content by volume, non-filtered, 0.75 l.

Modern, plush, full and warm with considerable fruitiness in a harmonious blend with well composed herbal and spicy strands and a floral tone, vibrant on the palate with noticeable yet unimposing tannin structure, well rounded, of considerable length. Of a darker sparkling ruby colour with a discrete albeit entirely adequately strongly pronounced aroma needing some time to open up and exhibit a beautiful, complex bouquet with ripe, dark rubus fruits and drupes underpinned by caresses of smoke and vanilla, overtones of dark flowers and dried spice herbs and a trace of white pepper. Pure, pleasantly bitterish on the palate, with a good acidity, plush with fine grained tissue, harmonious, lasting, while the rubes are once again perceived retronasally.

Serve in a wider Burgundy glass at 18 degrees Centigrade with grilled meats and roasted lighter meat, game bird dishes, semi-hard elaborate cheeses.
