A warm and spicy medium-bodied pinot noir with a wide range of red and black berries, orange peel and earthy notes. The healthy tannins at the generous finish mean there's no hurry. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
This sleek red is offers cherry and pomegranate fruit. An earthy element seeps in on the firm finish.
In the small town of Schweigen, Becker's vineyards straddle the French border… about 70% of this wine is grown in France, the other 30% on the German side. The soils consist of limestone covered in a clay/loam mix. The grapes are all destemmed and fermented in open tanks. The final blend is aged in large oak casks and 10% smaller barriques, all neutral oak.
This is an incredibly drinkable, lovely Pinot with sweet fruit married to exceptional minerality. Notes of dried cranberry, pomegranate and light cherry entice the palate. Year after year, Becker's basic cuvee achieves the holy grail of Pinot: a light body belied by delicious flavor. Great on its own, but also compliments heavier seafood, poultry, and fine cuts of beef and game.
