2021 Jean Ginglinger Pinot Noir
Description
WINEMAKER: Jean-François Ginglinger
REGION: Alsace, FR
VARIETAL: Pinot Noir
VITICULTURE: Certified Biodynamic
"The Pinot Noir 2021 vintage is 100% Pinot Noir, a melange from all Jean’s vineyards because the size of the harvest in 2021 was relatively small. As with the Pinot Gris from 2021, because of a small harvest, this cuvée contains the grapes that would normally go into several Pinot Noir wines (including Sandstein, his traditional Pinot Noir, and Steiner). If you haven’t tried a Pinot Noir from the Alsace region then you should do yourself a favour because they are often very good and quite often exemplary. The Pinot Noir juice was matured in a large, old foudre and shows depth and elegance as well as a nice streak of aciditiy." - Living Wines

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
