    A Dutch Pinot Noir that is surprisingly good!

    Cherries, strawberries, earthiness, spices, and something smoky. This special Thorn Pinot Noir opens up beautifully after some time! Its notes of fresh red fruit and subtle spicy tones have certainly won us over. In the glass, you have a very light-colored wine. However, that says nothing about the intensity! That is higher than you would expect with such a (beautiful) light color. This Dutch wine from Thorn, located in the Meuse Valley in Middle-Limburg, shows that our country can produce excellent red wines! The Pinot Noir grapes are therefore grown and selected with great care, resulting in a wine that can rival renowned international examples. It is even said that the Thorn Pinot Noir is a promising example for the future of Pinot Noir from the Netherlands.

    Also try the White Auxerrois from Thorn Winery!

    A taste experience that continues to captivate and an elegant expression of terroir.

    The Wijngoed Thorn Pinot Noir 777 Barrique is characterized by its silky texture and perfectly integrated oak notes that do not overpower. On the palate, it displays a complexity of red cherries, strawberries, and subtle spices. The long, ripe finish testifies to craftsmanship and quality.

    This wine pairs excellently with refined meat dishes such as:

    • Duck breast
    • or veal fillet.
    • Also with mushroom risotto
    • Aged cheeses.

    But this is also a winner with vegetarian dishes! At restaurant Het Rijks, it is served alongside Red Beet!

    The story behind Thorn Winery

    The Wijngoed Thorn vineyard is situated on an old branch of the Meuse River with a soil composed of clay, sand, and gravel. This area is one of the driest regions in the Benelux, with an average of 1,600 hours of sunshine per year. As a result, these unique conditions ensure optimal ripening of the grapes. The winemakers limit the yield to 40 hectoliters per hectare to achieve maximum concentration. After vinification, the Wijngoed Thorn Pinot Noir 777 Barrique (as the name suggests) ages for eighteen months in French oak barrels. This results in a harmonious wine!

    The secret of top Dutch wine

    The Pinot Noir grape is known as a 'cool-climate' variety that excels at slow, even ripening. Thorn's microclimate offers ideal conditions for this. The combination of terroir, climate and craftsmanship makes this wine a rare Dutch gem. The winemaker consciously chooses sustainable viticulture with respect for nature and tradition.
