This Barbaresco Riserva is a wine meant for slow sipping
or poured into a summer sangria
The result is a Jurançon Sec with weight and savor
deepened by tertiary notes of saffron and roasted nut
and bottle this with zero dosage
Peter Leipold, Pinot Noir Grand Cru, 2023 SO051226 Trousselle This Barbaresco Riserva is aThis is the top of Peter Leipold's Pinot Noir pyramid, and it wears its Burgundy training openly. Fruit comes from a single southwest facing plot of Muschelkalk limestone in Franken, fermented with wild yeast, partly whole cluster, then aged in French oak that includes old barrels sourced from Domaine de la Romanee Conti. Gravity fed, unfined, unfiltered, with barely any sulfur added. 'Grand Cru' isn't an official title here, it's Leipold's own
