About this wine

This Pinot Noir from the Château d'Auvernier showcases the exceptional clay soils that give this wine its name and character. It's a beautiful expression of Neuchâtel's terroir, crafted from carefully selected parcels that bring depth and elegance to every glass.

On the nose, you'll find inviting aromas of ripe red cherries and wild strawberries, complemented by subtle earthy notes and a hint of spice. The palate is smooth and well-structured, with silky tannins that carry flavors of red fruits through to a lingering finish. At 14.5% alcohol, it has a generous body without being heavy, showing the warmth of the 2022 vintage.

This wine pairs wonderfully with Swiss classics like entrecôte café de Paris or a fondue chinoise. It's also excellent with roasted duck breast or mushroom risotto. Serve at 16-18°C to let the wine express its full aromatic potential.
