Scheid-enfreude

TASTING NOTES:
“Our 2016 Pinot Noir delivers delicate aromas of cherries, raspberries and currants with notes of mocha and vanilla from the French oak. It is medium-bodied and velvety with soft tannins and a long elegant finish.” (AbV 13.5%, pH 3.66)

BARRELS:
12 months in French oak, 35% new.

TANGENTIALLY RELATED FACT to help you make conversation over this wine:
The German term “schadenfreude” is an interesting case of an emotional state with a descriptive word in a different culture that didn’t quite exist in the English language. Meaning to derive joy from another person’s bad luck, it’s been coopted outside the German language.

PAIRS WITH (winery recommended):
Salmon, pork and strong cheeses.

OR (really-going-with-the-theme-option):
Comeuppance.
