TASTING NOTE
RAAR Saint Remi Pinot noir Regent Barrique 2020
red wine
The wine has a beautiful concentration and is very compact. In the nose and mouth fruity, floral and herbaceous characteristics with typical smell and taste of roses and pine. We strongly recommend to decant the wine for at least 30 minutes, because this improves the fruit and softens the harsh cedar wood taste.
RAAR Saint Remi
Limburg
Detailed Tasting Notes
Wine tasting: 23 Feb 2022
Appearance
A clear, purple colored wine with medium color intensity
Nose
The wine has a clean nose, with medium(+) aroma intensity and youthful development. The aromas show floral, vegetable, herbal and fruity characteristics. We smell black currants, black cherries, roses, pine ( a bit of a medicinal smell), bay leafs and some cedar wood.
Palate
A dry wine medium- acidity and medium alcohol (12.5%). The wine is medium bodied, has a medium flavour intensity and medium- tannin. The palate of the wine shows fruity, floral and herbaceous characteristics. We taste rose hips, rose leaves, beetroot, bay leafs, and cedar wood. After decanting the wine, the wine shows much more softer fruity characteristics and less harsh tannin. The ending is of medium length.
Quality Assessment
The wine has a beautiful concentration and is very compact. We strongly recommend to decant the wine for at least 30 minutes, because this improves the fruit and softens the harsh cedar wood taste. Since the wine has rather low levels of acidity and tannin, we don’t expect is will further improve with ageing.
