Pinot Noir is a love at second sip - at least for us. After a long evening with French Pinot Noirs in a wine bar in Oslo, we felt and experienced the drinkability, elegance and exciting vibration in our barrels.

The grapes from our Pinot Noir Estate come from a slightly warmer location and are thus a little more lush for Pinot Noir standards; but offer elegance and drinking glassiness due to their deep roots in the limestone marl terroir.

If you're into Pinot Noir, then you must also uncover our Vendersheim Pinot Noir 2020.
