The Land
The Stein Spätburgunder originates from the Mosel region, renowned for its precipitous, slate-rich slopes that cultivate some of the oldest Pinot Noir vines in the area. These steep terrains, composed of blue and gray slate, contribute to the wine's distinctive minerality and vibrant energy. The 2023 vintage benefited from favorable conditions, enhancing the grapes' natural acidity and freshness.
The Wine
"Red Light" is Stein's Pinot Noir Kabinett Trocken, emphasizing lightness and precision. With an alcohol content of approximately 11.5%, it presents a delicate profile featuring tart red fruits like strawberry and raspberry, complemented by dried herbs and spices. The wine is elegant with lively acidity and smoky minerality that reflect the Mosel's distinctive style of Pinot Noir.
