TN: 01 In Signo Tauri, by Bayer
Although I'm not a big fan of Pinot Noir, I was more than surprised by
this austrian (Burgenland) wine. The wine has been laying in new barrique for 2 years - a reason more for not liking it, BUT! - the color is sparkling ruby - ok, it's pinot. And then - unbelievably complex nose: ripe strawberries, raspberries, almost strawberry-rum jam. Palate is even more strawberry, after some time a hint of cocoa. Haselnut, chocolate (maybe roasted almonds?) aftertaste. Very structured tannins, (at least for me) unexpectedly persistent finish. Had it with wild mushroom-chestnut-risotto with blueberry-red beet-coriander sauce. It might go well with wild goose or similar.

M. that's - without doubt - perfectly correct, but it's still "only" pinot noir, my not-so-favourite wine. at least unti I tried in signo tauri ;-)

M. Had Juris Wolfsjäger 03 some time ago, Very exciting wine with nice roasted palate. I guess I should really try his Pinot also.
