Superb. Brambly cherries, glorious spice and Alpine love. Really airy and expansive. Palate is full of minerals and energy. Gorgeous cherry fruit that is so pure and sapid. Velvety tannins that are so well knit. Needs air but this is a superstar. The texture became so creamy but it didn’t sacrifice its minerality. — a day ago

Gorgeous aromas. Mid season sweet cherry fruit, spices, some gorgeous sweet oak, wet earth, florals and aromas that penetrate deep in the nasal cavity. Almost some barely ripe blackberry and cassis. Really a whole world of difference than last August. Just silly good aromas. Palate is ripe and juicy with a lithe, silky texture. Awesome purity and balance and such haunting delicacy. Sweet fruit and so nimble this is shockingly great. I vastly underrated this last time. Sweet, lithe and ripe tannins. This is stunning and achingly beautiful. 9.6 for now. Let’s see what air does to this. — 2 years ago

A perfect bottle of this wine. A true emotional experience. Can go toe to toe with any top white wine in the world. And it’s Sauvignon Blanc! Best bottle ever of this and wine of the trip so far. — 2 years ago

Nose: sexy. Cherry lipstick. Dense. Quite penetrating. Earthiness. Insane sexy rich herbals. Almost like a red chartreuse.

Palate: dense. Purplish a bit. Darker fruits. Hints of cherry licorice. Almost like a very fresh pommard.

Long finish. So grippy. Amazing.

Hanspeter ziereisen made this in vintage. A sick wine for $100. This was much less. — 2 years ago
