One of the most important criteria we use when searching for Pinot Noir is if the wine’s scent and taste is true to the varietal, and this Spatburgunder from Im Zwolberich is bang-on. Its nose is classic ripe cherry, earth, and a touch of green stems, with a palate that is rich with the same red fruits and a finish that's brisk and earthy. A fabulous food-friendly wine! CLASSIC RIPE-FRUITED EARTHY RICH GREEN

The most classical pairings for Pinot Noir look to pose the earthy vibrance of the grape against meatier, gamier dishes. Coq au Vin or Boeuf Bourguignon are excellent options, along with a mushroom risotto; however, it's hard to imagine something better than a smoky baba ghanouj, fresh pita, and this Pinot.
