Pinot noir "les landions" 2021 - domaine des Landions (OWC, double magnum 3L)

Pinot Noir Les Landions 2021 — Domaine des Landions, Double Magnum OWC

This Pinot Noir Les Landions 2021 from Domaine des Landions, offered here in double magnum 3 L and in its original wooden case, embodies a rare, elegant and deeply Swiss expression of Pinot Noir from Neuchâtel. From a domaine recognised for the finesse of its red wines, it combines precise fruit, vintage freshness and the delicate expression of Neuchâtel’s limestone terroir.

The 2021 vintage offers a fresh, slender and highly refined profile: red cherry, Morello cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, old rose, violet, fine spices, black tea, delicate forest floor, fresh earth and a subtle mineral touch. The double magnum format encourages slower evolution, preserves the brightness of the fruit and gives this bottle a particularly appealing collector dimension.

Terroir: Neuchâtel, Jura freshness and Pinot Noir finesse

The vineyards of Neuchâtel offer Pinot Noir a cool, luminous and limestone-influenced environment, capable of producing wines of great aromatic finesse. The reds often express a more delicate than solar style, with pure fruit, fine tannins and freshness that naturally supports length.

Tasting notes

Appearance: luminous ruby with garnet reflections, bright and still very fresh, with slow evolution encouraged by the large format.

Nose: fine and expressive, with red cherry, Morello cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, old rose, violet, fine spices, black tea, fresh earth and delicate forest floor.

Palate: supple, fresh and silky, with precise red fruit, delicate tannins and fine tension. The finish is long, floral, lightly spicy and mineral, with an impression of purity, elegance and great drinkability.

Expression of the 2021 vintage

The 2021 vintage gives here a Pinot Noir that is fresher, more slender and more precise than in very solar years. This freshness highlights the finesse of red fruit, the energy of the terroir and the wine’s delicate floral dimension. In double magnum, evolution will be slow and harmonious, with fine potential towards notes of forest floor, black tea, sweet spices and time-polished red fruits.
