"Made from old vines and cuttings from the original block, dating from the 1860s. Pretty aromas of plums, red cherries, aniseed, musk and lilacs. Medium-bodied and plump, yet buoyed by subtle astringency and freshness. Reminiscent of better expressions from Baden. A delightful pinot that offers stunning value. It could be twice the price. Drink or hold. Screw cap."
