La Vierge Storyteller Pinot Noir 2023
Pinot Noir
Description
La Vierge is an estate rooted in the cool, maritime-influenced soils of the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge, where south-easterly sea breezes and slow ripening give Pinot Noir expressive red fruit and refreshing energy. The “Storyteller” range embodies both a sense of place and narrative craft: vines planted on argillaceous shale at elevated sites produce layered fruit that winemakers handle with care to preserve varietal purity and subtle oak nuance. This Pinot Noir reflects La Vierge’s philosophy of trusting the site and crafting approachable yet distinctive wines - refined in style and faithful to its cool-climate origins.
Colour:
Bright ruby with youthful clarity in the glass.
Nose:
Perfumed and inviting, showing red cherry and plum aromas with floral violet accents. Soft spice notes - hints of cracked black pepper and clove - give subtle complexity, while a whisper of forest floor and earthiness adds depth.
Palate:
Medium-bodied and refined, the palate displays juicy red fruit - sour cherry and red berry - wrapped in smooth, integrated tannins. A gentle savoury thread and spice lift lend interest, with bright acidity that keeps the wine poised and lively.
Finish:
Clean and elegant, finishing with lingering red fruit and soft spice that invite the next sip.

La Vierge Storyteller Pinot Noir 2023
- Food Pairing : La Vierge Storyteller Pinot Noir 2023’s bright acidity, silky texture and nuanced fruit character make it a versatile match on the table. It pairs beautifully with roasted duck breast with a berry jus - the red fruit echoes the wine’s plum and cherry notes while acidity cuts through richness. A mushroom-based risotto also brings out the savoury and earthy threads of the wine without overpowering its elegance, while grilled salmon with herb-butter offers a lighter yet harmonious match that lets the Pinot’s refined structure shine. For cheese, soft, creamy selections like Brie or mild camembert balance the wine’s spice and freshness with gentle richness.
- Drink before: Enjoy for 3–7 years under good cellar conditions; best enjoyed within that range while fruit and freshness are balanced.
