Van Nahmen Pinot Noir Druivensap BIO

history of Van Nahmen

The German family business Van Nahmen has existed since 1917 and is known for its high-quality fruit and grape juices. They work with respect for nature and tradition, while also utilizing modern techniques to preserve the pure flavor of grapes and fruit. Now in its fourth generation, the company focuses on organic cultivation and the preservation of rare fruit varieties.

region and origin of the grapes

For this grape juice, Van Nahmen uses Pinot Noir from organic vineyards in Germany. The cool nights and warm days ensure slow ripening, allowing the grapes to retain their fresh acidity while developing aromatic depth. By using only organic grapes, they guarantee that no artificial pesticides or fertilizers are used in the process.

grape type and harvest

Pinot Noir is known worldwide for its refinement and complexity. The grapes are carefully harvested by hand to prevent damage. Van Nahmen deliberately chooses ripe but not overripe grapes, so that the balance between fruitiness and freshness is preserved. Harvesting takes place when the grapes have reached an optimal ratio of sugar, acidity, and aromatics.

fermentation and processing

Because this is a juice, there is no alcoholic fermentation. The grapes are gently pressed, and the juice is immediately cooled to prevent oxidation. Pasteurization ensures the product remains stable, without the need for added preservatives. This way, Pinot Noir Grape Juice Organic retains the full fruitiness and natural acidity so characteristic of the grape.

color, smell and taste

This grape juice is deep ruby red in color, with a vibrant sheen. The aroma reveals red fruit like cherries and raspberries, complemented by subtle spice. The flavor is full, soft, and harmonious. You'll taste ripe berries, cherries, and a light earthy note. The mouthfeel is round and juicy, with enough freshness to avoid being heavy. The finish is long and fruity, making this juice a mature alternative to red wine. The juice has some sediment due to minimal filtration.

details and character

This juice is fully certified organic and alcohol-free. It's not just any grape juice; it's designed for serious wine lovers looking for a non-alcoholic alternative. Thanks to the complexity of the Pinot Noir grape, this grape juice comes closer to the experience of wine than most other juices. It's suitable for both gourmet use and occasions when alcohol isn't desired.
