Frühburgunder grape variety

Pinot Noir, also known as Pinot Madeleine, is a red grape variety that is closely related to Pinot Noir. It is also cultivated in France, but mainly in Germany. The grape ripens - nomen est omen - earlier than Pinot Noir and produces somewhat richer wines with velvety tannins and good acidity. Frühburgunder wines usually show flavours of red fruits such as cherry, blackberry and raspberry, complemented by spicy notes and sometimes smoky tones. They can be matured both in steel tanks and in wooden barrels, with the latter often displaying a certain oak flavour. Frühburgunder goes well with a variety of dishes, from poultry and pork to dark braised beef. Frühburgunder is bottled as a single variety, but is also used for blending with Spätburgunder to give the cuvee more body.
