Domeniul Coroanei - Pinot Noir

This wine is another one from "Prestige" collection. I detailed this in a previous post. "Domeniul Coroanei" is a protocol wine brand used by the Romanian Royal House. This Pinot Noir was produced in 2011 and comes in a 75 cl bottle. It is a strong wine having 13,8% alcohol. It is a dry red wine which won 3 times silver medals in wine contests:
2011 - Concours Mondial de Bruxelles, 2012 and 2013 - China Wine Awards.
The taste is strong and expressive without any typical finesse. Fruit is the dominant taste with a little bit aroma of vanilla and spice. 
This Pinot Noir comes from handpicked grapes de-stemmed and maintained in maceration for 10 days. The wine is aged using French oak barrels for 6 to 8 months. The optimal temperature for opening of this bottle is 16-18 Celsius degrees. It may be used at a table where is consumed beef or pork, preferably medium roasted. It usualy may be bought for 10 €.
