Wine of the Month: Legendary Dracula Pinot Noir 2015

It’s time for the wine of the month again at Total Bath! Let’s chat to our local wine expert Ben Franks, from Bath-based business Novel Wines, who has a top wine pick to get us ready for Halloween later this month. Our pick is the delicious, fruity red Legendary Dracula Pinot Noir 2015.

Ben says: "Hailing from the Dealu Mare region of Romania just outside of Transylvania’s vast plains is this gorgeous 100% Pinot Noir from the Legendary Dracula range. It’s spooky cool branding might make some think this wine’s a bit of a gimmick but the Vinarte Vineyard behind the label is actually one of Romania’s finest wine producers.

"Full of ripe cherries and juicy plum fruit, tempered by cracked black pepper and a smooth, chocolatey texture, this is a medium bodied red ideal for sipping as the months start to grow chillier. Whether you’re putting your feet up on Halloween to enjoy a glass, or drinking it with friends in front of a scary movie, it’s also a surprisingly yummy match with a sausage and mushroom pasta. Sal wrote a lovely recipe for that match here (https://www.novelwines.co.uk/blogs/food-and-wine-matching/italian-sausage-p…).

"For anyone who loves Pinot Noir, Romania is a quality country of origin to keep an eye on. As Halloween is only in a couple of weeks, why not start your wine adventure with a bottle of Legendary Dracula and discover what all the fuss is about?”

There is also 10% off all Novel Wines’ Romanian range until the end of October. Buy a case today: https://www.novelwines.co.uk/products/legendary-dracula-pinot-noir
