Started in 1923, Johanneshof Reinisch is a 40 Hectare estate, in the village of Tattendorf, located in Thermenregion. Thermenregion is “the end of the alps”, a DAC region in Austria, south and slightly west of Vienna. Today, the estate is run by the fourth generation of the family: the three Reinisch Brothers – Michael, Hannes, and Christian.
Tasting Notes from Vinous:
"The grapes for Reinisch's 2021 Pinot Noir come from glacial, limestone-dominated vineyards around Tattendorf and Gumpoldskirchen. Macerated for 10 days and aged in large oak casks (10 to 30 hectoliters) for 10 months, this is a delicately fruity, lean and elegant Pinot Noir with fresh red cherry and berry aromas on the coolish, fresh and immediately stimulating nose. The palate of this medium-bodied wine is remarkably tight and finely structured but most of all perfectly fruity and juicy, with silky tannins and an elegant, energetic character with a clean and cleansing finish. A lovey Pinot for everyday at a very fair price."
