2023 Njord Terrassen
The Njord Terrassen is another highly-regarded single-site Danish red, sourced from Njord Vingaard's terraced vineyards, which benefit from excellent drainage and sun exposure. The 2023 vintage of this Pinot Noir Précoce is expected to be powerful and deeply flavored, showcasing the concentration that the warmest plots deliver. Aromas include dark berries, rhubarb, and savory spice, leading to a textured, dry palate with firm tannins and notable length. Like the Sandhøj, this is a serious red, displaying the potential of top Danish Pinot Noir with a unique, energetic Nordic character.
