Pinot Noir 2017
Seductive Raspberry & Cigar
A deep & smoky red wine from Belgium's Maasvallei AOC. A warm year for Pinot Noir in the region, this wine is a rounded and full. On the nose it's all red fruits with hints of toast and cedar. On the palate, it evolves from dark cherries and ripe raspberries, to tertiary notes of cigar smoke and cinnamon. Long and elegant finish.Â
WIJNDOMEIN ALDENEYCK | Despite coming from a long line of Belgian fruit growers, Karel Henckens had always dreamed of making wine. But, instead of chasing those dreams in France, he remained on the farm that his grandfather had built in 1929.Â
