Cave du Cep - J. FélixPinot Noir élevé en barrique 2022

About this wine

This Pinot Noir from Cave du Cep shows what happens when Neuchâtel's cool climate meets careful barrel aging. It's a wine that brings elegance and depth without trying too hard, perfect for anyone looking to explore Swiss reds beyond the basics.

The nose opens with red cherries and wild strawberries, followed by subtle hints of vanilla and toast from its time in oak. On the palate, it's medium-bodied with silky tannins and bright acidity that keeps everything fresh and lively. You'll find layers of red fruit complemented by delicate spice notes and a smooth, lingering finish that invites another sip.

This is your go-to wine for a cozy dinner with roasted duck breast, mushroom risotto, or a classic beef bourguignon. It also pairs beautifully with Swiss alpine cheeses like Gruyère. Serve it at around 16-17°C to let all those flavors shine through.
