Enira Neipperg Selection 2021
A Deeper Interpretation of the Enira Style
Enira Neipperg Selection 2021 represents a more focused and introspective expression within the Enira family. Built around Merlot and complemented by Syrah, this wine reflects a composed understanding of richness, texture and varietal character. It is a wine that speaks through depth and cohesion rather than intensity alone.
Tasting Profile & Sensory Experience
The wine presents a deep garnet color, dense and sophisticated. From the very first breath, the abundance of aromas charms the senses, unfolding with immediate intensity. The bouquet offers a multi-layered fusion of dark fruits and noble nuances:
-
Primary Aromas: Intense notes of plum, wild blueberry, and ripe blackberry.
-
Secondary Notes: Elegant accents of beeswax, rich cocoa, and warm baking spices (clove, cinnamon).
On the palate, the wine is remarkably smooth, rounded, and homogeneous. The texture is soft and velvety, allowing the fruit character to unfold with finesse and ease. Enira Neipperg Selection 2021 concludes with a pleasant, soft finish of medium length, leaving a balanced and lasting impression of maturity and harmony.
Terroir & Winemaking
The selected vineyard parcels provide the concentration and maturity required for this style of blend. Careful extraction and measured use of oak allow the varietal character to remain clear and unforced.
Grape Varieties:
- 80% Merlot
- 20% Syrah
Winemaking:
The grapes are harvested by hand with strict quality control in the vineyard. After destemming and careful berry selection, whole berries are transferred by gravity into concrete tanks without crushing. Cold maceration precedes fermentation, followed by controlled alcoholic fermentation and extended warm maceration for depth of extraction. After malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged for one year in French oak barrels, adding structure and quiet complexity. The final blend is filtered and bottled.
Food Pairing & Serving Suggestions
Enira Neipperg Selection 2021 pairs well with dishes that echo its depth and warmth:
- Red meats: Braised beef, roasted lamb
- Hearty dishes: Slow-cooked stews, mushroom-based dishes
- Cheeses: Aged semi-hard and hard cheeses
Serving temperature: 16–18°C
Cellaring potential: Enjoyable now for its cohesion and softness, with the ability to develop further nuance over the next 5–8 years.
