The Cistercian monks brought Pinot Noir to Langenlois from their ancient homeland of Burgundy. The gravely soils south of Gobelsburg are ideal for this varietal as the calcareous content allows for good drainage.

"The 2020 Pinot Noir Reserve still has a touch of reduction. The palate has a lovely frame of tannin, crunching like caramel on top of a crème brulée. Red cherry fruit offers crunchiness, ripeness and exquisitely captured freshness. That freshness runs through the wine and provides contour and liveliness on the medium body. (Bone-dry)"

"Cranberries, moss, porcini mushrooms and smoked tea on the nose of this complex and earthy red. It's medium-bodied with tangy acidity and lightly chalky tannins. Elegant and savory. Drink now or hold."

"The 2021 Pinot Noir Reserve still crackles with a seductive note of flint. Beneath that, redcurrant and wild raspberry emerge on the nose. The palate reprises these berry notes and adds tart cherry alongside a woodland savor reminiscent of lichen and conifer, released as the fine tannins melt after a delicious crunch. A classy, refined Pinot Noir with immense charm, generosity and poised structure."
