Simcic Pinot Noir Selection Cru 2021

Marjan Simčič a cult producer in Slovenia. Half his vineyards are in Italy and half in Slovenia. Much lauded by the international press including Decanter, Wine Spectator and Suckling this producer is at the top of wine producers in Slovenia (and we also think Italy). The soil for his vineyards is rich in minerals, which contributes to the production of these unique wines. Simčič makes his wines based on traditional methods and natural viticultural and winemaking techniques including native yeast and no chemical additives

Transparent, ruby red colour, approaching a brick-like hue. The bouquet is of cherry liqueur, excellent cask and orange peel. It has the taste of very ripe fruit, especially cherries; a fresh and lovely tartness; pleasantly balanced taste of cask, and a moment later, of peppermint. You are left with a delightfully long aftertaste of cherries.
