The most ambitious red of the house. One plot, a long ageing in wood, and the declared intention of making a wine to keep. Where Hüt plays on finesse, Rahn looks for depth and substance. This is the pinot noir you lay down and forget for a few years.
Tasting.
- Appearance
- Deep ruby, almost garnet.
- Nose
- Black fruit, blackcurrant, undergrowth, a smoky note from the ageing.
- Palate
- Dense and structured, tannins present but ripe. Long finish on spice and cherry stone.

- Feathered game, duck
- Mushrooms, morels, truffle
- Aged cheeses
The sommelier’s note.
- Temperature

- Glass
- A large Burgundy glass
A wine that asks for patience and a substantial dish. On a recent vintage, open it the day before if you can.
