I downloaded...

German pinot noir: from abysmal to world-class
German pinot noir has undergone a remarkable transformation over the past two decades, shifting from widely dismissed, overripe and heavily oaked wines to elegant, precise and terroir-driven expressions. Producers now focus on earlier harvests, lower yields, cooler fermentation and less oak, resulting in lighter, more refined styles. Germany’s diverse soils add further complexity, and with […] Continue reading: German pinot noir: from abysmal to world-class The post German pinot noir: from abysmal to world-class was originally published on BKWine Magazine and written by Göran van den Brink .
