Many Burgundians could learn a thing or two from this Pinot Noir, a wine that showcases all the beautiful qualities of the grape. Takuan is currently the winemaker at Haute Cabriere and has been developing this Pinot Noir further in recent years on his plots in Franschhoek. With this red wine, he aims to demonstrate that aging wine in oak isn't always necessary. This Unwooded is living proof of that; the wine stays young, and you taste and smell all the beautiful qualities of the Pinot Noir grape.
All ingredients for first-class wines
Consisting of two farms, each situated at opposite ends of the breathtakingly beautiful Franschhoek Valley, Haute Cabrière Winery is truly something special. Its rich history, superb location, premium wine, and charismatic owner make a visit to Haute Cabrière an unforgettable experience. Haute Cabrière believes that great wine is born in the vineyard through the combination of sun, soil, vines, and people.
Remarkable aromas for this Unwooded Pinot Noir
The goal in producing the Haute Cabriere Unwooded Pinot Noir was to create an elegant wine that would also appeal to non-red wine drinkers. Its brilliant light red color promises seductive aromas of red berries. On the nose, winemaker Takuan creates a truly striking aroma; notes of red berries, roses, violets, and light spices make the wine exciting. As Takuan himself says, this is only achieved with meticulous care from the vineyard. On the palate, this Pinot Noir is juicy, round, soft, and bursting with red fruit, light spices, cherries, and a hint of pomegranate. The smooth and refreshing finish provides a complete experience. Enjoy this wine slightly chilled at 10 degrees Celsius to experience all the lovingly full flavors and aromas! It pairs perfectly with pasta dishes.
