Renner & Rennersistas Pin-oh! Noir 2022 750ml

Biodynamic, Organic. 'Pin-Oh!' is taken from one small vineyard that was planted in 2017 by Stefanie Renner and her family. The cuvée name is drawn from the actual vineyard name of the Pinot Noir site near Gols, where the Renner family works, called 'Oberheide'--the abbreviation for the vineyard is OH, hence, Pin-OH. (Officially, the family isn't allowed to use the vineyard name due to appellation regulations.) Two passes were done for harvest, one earlier and one later. The fruit was fermented all whole-cluster, on the skins for three-four days; it then was pressed and went into 500L barrels. Élevage was seven months; clarification happened via gravity, not filtration. The barrels were blended and bottled in spring of '23. Ethereal, delicate, layered and refined. In 2022, the vintage was exceedingly hot and dry in Burgenland, meaning this release has a touch more extraction and power than others you might see from the Renner family, but the siblings made extra efforts to retain freshness and lift for wines from this year.
