The Affental region is a part of Baden, Germany's southern-most region, which lies along the border of France. Here, amid the warmth of the Rhine River at the foot of the Black Forest, some of Germany's best pinot noir and a host of white wines are produced. The original "monkey bottle" has been a brand symbol of the Affental Viticultural Cooperative since 1949. The distinct look of the bottle and unique Baden bouquet has made this wine a cult classic amongst oenophiles across Germany and the United States.
Affentaler Pinot Noir has a powerful yet harmonious body with fruity richness and delicate sweetness. It is dark red, with ripe aromas of cherries and berries.
Food Pairing
The Pinot Noir pairs well with pizza and pasta dishes, especially red meat. Game is a great companion, as is duck in different preparations. ABV: 12%
