Pinot Noir 2022 - Gérard Schueller

Pinot Noir - Gérard Schueller

100% Pinot Noir from old vines located on sandy, clayey-limestone soils. Vinification with short maceration then refinement for about 9 months in wooden vats on the lees. Obviously, Bruno bottles his wine without filtration and without sulfur. A wine that offers floral and fruity notes, and on the palate, good balance and acidity that supports it.

Service

We taste it at a temperature around 8/10 ° C. Wine to drink immediately but if left a few years in the cellar can give great satisfaction.

Pairings

Also excellent in combination with aged cheeses and cured meats, it goes very well with red meats

Cellar:  Gérard Schueller

The Domaine of Gérad Schueller is located in Husseren-les-Châteux, a small medieval village located a few kilometers southwest of Colmar, in Alsace. The domaine is managed by Bruno Schueller, the son, who owns land on the Grands Crus divided between Eguisheim and Husseren-les- Chateaux, namely Pfersigberg and Eichberg. Grapes grown, the traditional Alsatian ones, such as; Pinot bianco, Pinot Grigio, Gewurztraminer and Pinot Noir. In the cellar and in the vineyard we work absolutely without intervention. No addition of sulfur dioxide, no temperature control other than what Mother Nature does by itself, no decanting and even less filtration ... It produces about 40 different cuvées and eventually sells about 25 wines every year. Bruno tries to enhance the maximum potential of the combination of grape variety, terroir and climate of each vintage. Bruno is a genius, he clearly understands what grapes want, then he helps the grapes to go in the right direction. Consequently, the style and taste of the same wine (same grape from the same vineyards) will not be the same every year.
