A full bodied blend of mostly Arneis and Cortese (Arcese). Dosage at bottling makes this almost a pet nat with fleshy orchard fruit flavors and earthy, cider-y tones. Effervescent. Biodynamic. — 12 days ago

Tons of sediment.
On the herbaceous side. Quite tart still. Orange peel. Tumeric. Subdued cherry. Oregano, bark. Not my all time favorite but still very good. Yet not for the uninitiated. One has to know E&M. — 3 months ago

Looked at Lyles, Matthew’s and Josh’s notes written in 2020. Needs a ton of air - about 2 hours to mellow out. Strong perfumed nose. In the glass cranberry, moss and what i call E&M black forest herbs, velvety, touch capsaicin, hint orange juice. Quite tannic. Fantastic fruit components develop over time! First cherries notes next are black currants and elderberry tones. What a trip!. NEEDS 2 hours of air. Drink now with a heavy decant and air? Yes 🙌. It is in a perfect spot despite the tannins. What a wine!!! I will drink this vintage up over the course of 24/25. — 7 months ago

Bellissima interpretazione dell’annata.
Fresco, teso e molto piacevole.
Poca struttura ma ben bilanciata.
Bel finale che dona peso e carattere.

Quite earthy. Light. Ten years later for this basic wine and it still does very well. Strawberries, rhubarb, stem influence, oregano… as it opens up give it many hours! Hint raspberry. Still a lot of tannis. Given that this is the basic wine for E&M and was 20$. This is unbelievably awesome 😎. What a wine - i fear this is my last bottle - a cellar find - i am totally disorganized hahaha 😆. — 11 days ago

Tastes like a NSG. Beautiful wine. Nicely balanced tannins. Seems some stems were included. Mostly darker fruit. Elderberry, dark cherry. chalk, fresh. Needs time to settle down and find its stride. Very much in the E&M style. Sven left E&M. Both wineries make excellent renditions. The E&M basic Pinot was much more fruit driven a drink now wine. This needs time. — 5 months ago

Veramente un bel vino. 94-96.
Puro ed espressivo. Intenso ed elegante.
La miglior maturità riscontrata in tutti i vini assaggiati fin’ora.
Blend 54 CS 43 M 4 PVerdot 1 CF.
Al naso espressivo con frutta e suolo. Al palato fine, molto naturale e altrettanto preciso e pulito. Finale caldo e avvolgente.
Lascia in bocca la natura del luogo.
Super! — 7 days ago

These E&M wines are just stupido! What do i mean by this? Popped opened. Joined 2 bottles into one because i was not convinced/unhappy. Got close to the sink. Then decided leave in the fridge for 2 weeks. And Voilà now quite awesome. Strawberries, tart, rhubarb, ….bark, more red than Rosé. Dark, complex, orange zest, dark cherry. Would age this 2-3 years. Revisit and then decide on even more cellar time. — 3 months ago

Addictive and absolutely stunning. Super elegant and lean when compared to the Buntsandstein from E&M. Ethereal cherry 🍒 light as air. Crushed Marble. Essentially like a Premier Cru Chambolle Musigny from the slopes of the black forest. Tannin’s fully resolved. Drink Up!!!! I would not keep this longer. From here on out it will loose its luster. — 7 months ago
