2014 Technical Specifications

Grape Varieties Pinot Noir and its Pinot mutations
Region Alsace
Soil Rocky limestone soils in bergheim
Production Details The Pinot Noir and Pinot mutations were planted in 1947; Robert Parker's note describes the wine as having low SO2. The producer's separate estate-wide 2014 vintage note reports bunch-by-bunch sorting for 26 consecutive days, sacrificing 25–50% of volume, and an estate-average yield of 25 hL/ha; that yield is not Burlenberg-specific.
Tasting Notes White pepper and spice interwoven with ripe, precise dark fruit, plum skin and floral notes; full-bodied, intense and juicy yet pure, silky, fresh and tightly structured, with firm fruit-derived tannins.
