My first #pfalz #pinotnoir - Such a classic Old World German Pinot Noir style. Just shy of medium bodied, garnet in glass with bricking towards the edges. An interesting pronounced smoky tar and slate nose - not unpleasant at all, faint strawberry, cherry aromas much farther behind that. Lighter bodied on the palate than it looks - savory red fruit, some peppery spice, grippy textured tannins on a longer finish. It paired pretty well with my favorite Austin Philly-style cheesesteak sandwich.
