Saurwein Nom Pinot Noir 2023

2023 was a superb vintage with good conditions for set and ripening. Saurwein Nom Pinot Noir is graceful and poised. The tannin is silky, medium-grained and is supported by fresh acidity, which brings the desired tension and a sense of weightlessness.

Nom stands for nombulelo (gratitude in “Xhosa”) and Nomkhubulwane (a forgotten African goddess of agriculture). Situated at 700m altitude, the vineyard is a place where gratitude is instilled and tales appear. The grapes for this wine are hand-picked, hand-sorted, grapes are cold-soaked, fermentation is spontaneous, post-fermentation maceration is complete when the tannins are optimal and the wine spent 10 months in 228 liter French oak barrels (26% new and older).  

Tasting Notes:

Red and black cherry fruit, umami, roasted chestnuts, silky medium grained tannins, balanced acidity and the wine will gather further complexity with age. I feel like making a Tom-Yum soup every time I taste this wine, as the salty savour longs for the fruit of the Nom Pinot.

Alc: 13.5%

Bottle Size: 750ml
