2021 Peter Wagner Oberrotweil Pinot Noir
2021 Peter Wagner Oberrotweil Pinot Noir
The wine has a light ruby red color. It smells of cherries, roasted notes, and chocolate. On the palate, it is smooth and fine, with a refreshing, long-lasting finish.

Oberrotweil is unspectacular. 1,600 inhabitants, surrounded by nature, with a church in the center. People go to the performances of the men's choir or meet for a morning pint at the Bären inn. Nevertheless, the name of this backwater is emblazoned on the label of Peter Wagner's Pinot because the place makes the wine.
Peter Wagner knows this very well. Since he started with the 2017 vintage, he has achieved a lot. He was named Rising Star of the Year by the Eichelmann Guide, has expanded his production, and has refined his wines. His cool and elegant Burgundies represent the new school of winemaking in Germany, and he is now represented in trendy restaurants and wine bars. It is important to him to bring out the origin in his wines, and so this Pinot Noir from his hometown of Oberrotweil clearly shows its terroir.
