The 2024 Turckheim Pinot Noir Réserve "Cuvée T" is an elegant Alsace Pinot Noir from the renowned Cave de Turckheim, crafted from carefully selected vineyards on granitic and siliceous soils. Produced in a fresh, fruit-driven style, it showcases the finesse and purity that have made Alsace Pinot Noir increasingly sought after. Gentle extraction and restrained oak influence allow the vibrant fruit and regional character to take centre stage.
The nose reveals aromas of cherry, blackberry and raspberry alongside subtle hints of violet, forest floor and gentle spice. The palate is light to medium-bodied, with juicy red berry fruit supported by supple tannins and refreshing acidity. Silky, balanced and beautifully approachable, it finishes with delicate savoury notes and impressive freshness.
Ben’s Recommendation:
A wonderfully versatile Pinot Noir that highlights the elegance and charm of Alsace. Its bright fruit and silky texture make it an excellent match for roast chicken, duck, grilled salmon, charcuterie, mushroom dishes and soft-rind cheeses. Serve slightly chilled and enjoy now through 2029 while its vibrant fruit and freshness are at their best.
