Pinot Noir - Barrique Jenins 2022

Influenced and inspired by a long tradition of winegrowing in Jenins, she has been linked to this culture since childhood. Like many generations before her, she wants to continue to run the 4 hectare farm with great commitment and passion.

In 1997, I pressed her first wine, gained experience and attended various courses (including at the University of Viticulture in Wädenswil). Guided by the cycle of the seasons, wines of character are created anew each year.

The vineyards are cultivated according to ecological guidelines. (BioSuisse/conversion). Manual labour is a matter of course. For many generations, healthy soil has been the basis of life, which is passed on.

The Jeninser Pinot Noir Barrique is a selection from four different plots.

The grapes come from old vines, younger Burgundian clones and small berry varieties. The yield is 400 g/ha.

During fermentation, the mash is pressed by hand and then gently pressed. Expansion takes place in 225-litre French oak barrels, half of which are new, the other half in one and two used barrels. The wine matures for a year.
