Description
Domaine de la Tour Blanche Pinot Noir 2024 is a fresh and expressive red wine from Alsace, a region best known for its aromatic white wines but also home to increasingly appealing expressions of Pinot Noir. Based in Riquewihr, the Klack family has maintained a winemaking tradition spanning generations, combining respect for the region with a focus on producing wines that express their grape variety and origin.
Made from 100% Pinot Noir, this wine showcases the naturally delicate and fruit-driven character of the variety. Pinot Noir is particularly well suited to Alsace, where the relatively dry climate and favourable vineyard conditions allow the grapes to ripen while retaining the freshness that gives the wines their distinctive appeal. The result is a red wine that favours elegance, aromatic fruit and balance over excessive weight or tannin.
In the glass, the wine displays a bright ruby-red colour. The nose is inviting and expressive, revealing aromas of fresh cherry, raspberry and redcurrant, with subtle hints of woodland fruit and gentle spice. These delicate aromas give the wine an appealingly open character, with the freshness of the fruit taking centre stage.
On the palate, the Pinot Noir is smooth and lively, with juicy red-fruit flavours supported by refreshing acidity and supple tannins. Cherry and raspberry lead the way, while subtle savoury notes add depth without overwhelming the fruit. Its balanced structure and clean finish make it particularly approachable, offering the elegance and delicacy associated with Pinot Noir rather than the weight of a more powerful red wine.
This is a versatile red that works beautifully with food. It pairs particularly well with roast chicken, duck, pork, charcuterie, mushroom dishes and soft or medium-aged cheeses. Its freshness also makes it a lovely choice for lightly chilled red wine lovers, especially when served slightly cooler than room temperature. Enjoy it young to appreciate its vibrant fruit and easy-going character.
