Tasting note:

The pure Pinot Noir fruit (raspberry, strawberry) with its fine spiciness and very subtle roasted notes in the background is unmistakable on the nose. Until after the long finish, its overall impression is enormously soft, yet very expressive.

Salenegg Castle:

Wine and Salenegg Castle are inextricably linked. Since 1068, stately wines have been cultivated and pressed in a natural way at Europe's oldest vineyard. As early as 950, the prior of Pfäfers Abbey laid the foundation stone for today's castle complex with its vineyard. The von Gugelberg family has stood for quality and originality since 1654. Today, Helene von Gugelberg manages the estate with vision.

Bündner Herrschaft:

Often referred to as the "Burgundy of Switzerland", this wine-growing region regularly produces top wines that enjoy worldwide recognition. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are particularly noteworthy.

80 per cent of the vineyards in the Bündner Herrschaft (approx. 400 hectares) are planted with red grape varieties, mainly Pinot Noir, which thrives particularly well on the limestone and slate soils of the Herrschaft. The conditions for Pinot Noir are absolutely outstanding. Permeable gravel, sand and slate soils, interspersed with limestone, prevail here.

The topography is ideal, and the high day-night temperature differences further enhance the elegance of the wines. During the day, the weather in the Herrschaft is characterised by plenty of sunshine and often strong foehn winds. This allows the grapes to ripen perfectly, but at night it gets quite cold due to the downdraughts from the mountains, with high temperature differences to the hot days. The berries retain their acidity thanks to this night-time coolness and the wines are not too rich.

Due to this special microclimate, Herrschäftler Pinot Noirs appear somewhat cooler than those of Burgundy, are racier and finer and less full and dense.
