Produced from hand-picked Spätburgunder and fermented naturally in locally sourced oak, it combines delicate red-fruited character with smoky, mineral complexity and finely polished structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, this Spätburgunder shows a clear ruby-red colour. The nose initially leans towards a restrained, slightly reductive style, with aromas of smoke, stone and subtle earthiness. With time and air, delicate red fruit emerges, led by cool raspberries and cherries, followed by gentle spice reminiscent of dark sourdough bread and a hint of caraway.\n\nThe palate is juicy and finely textured, with generous red fruit supported by refreshing acidity and fine-grained tannins. Its mineral and savoury nuances add depth without overpowering the fruit. The wine is approachable now with decanting, but its balance and structure should allow it to develop further in bottle over the coming years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Pfarrwingert vineyard lies directly behind the Bertram-Baltes winery on a south-facing slope in Dernau. Its soils of slate and greywacke retain heat, helping the Pinot Noir achieve ripeness while preserving freshness. The grapes are harvested by hand, spontaneously fermented in barrels made from local oak and bottled without filtration, allowing the vineyard’s mineral character and the wine’s nuanced texture to remain expressive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe at approximately 14–16°C, ideally after allowing the wine to breathe in a decanter for 30–60 minutes. Its bright acidity and fine tannins make it a versatile partner for roast poultry, duck, veal, pork tenderloin, mushroom dishes and gently seasoned game. It also pairs beautifully with earthy vegetables and dishes featuring lentils or roasted root vegetables.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBertram-Baltes is a specialist Ahr producer focused on expressive, terroir-driven Spätburgunder.
