Mineralstein Pinot Noir Gerd Stepp 2024This Pinot Noir is crafted in what winemaker Gerd Stepp calls an international style and who are we to disagree, but for us it also boasts a distinctly German style with its subtle, slightly sappy, juicy fresh finish. This supports deliciously ripe, red cherry fruit character on both the nose and palate, finishing with a little touch of spice. Absolutely delicious. Complex and generous for the price.
