Trocla Nera - Pinot Noir 2023

Weingut Obrecht, based in Jenins in Graubünden, is run by Christian and Francisca Obrecht, representing the fifth generation of the family. The estate follows a nature-focused philosophy, with biodynamic viticulture and low-intervention winemaking. Pinot Noir plays a central role, with wines focused on freshness, finesse and the expression of the Bündner Herrschaft terroir.

Trocla Nera, meaning “black grape” in Romansh, is a 100% Pinot Noir from vineyards in Jenins and Malans. The wine undergoes spontaneous skin fermentation in a 7,000-litre wooden vat, followed by 12 months in used barriques, and is bottled unfiltered. The result is a pure, timeless Pinot Noir combining characteristic fruit with well-balanced oak notes.

Appearance: Bright ruby colour, typical of Pinot Noir.

Nose: Attractive aromas of red berries, raspberry and cherry, complemented by spicy, subtly smoky and woody nuances.

Palate: Elegant and fresh, with expressive fruit, ripe acidity and balanced structure. Red berries mingle with spicy and smoky notes through a harmonious finish.

Food Pairing: Graubünden barley soup, beef tartare, Arctic char or braised veal cheek.
