Rich and bold, but still smooth on the palate. Notes of tobacco & cherry. — 10 months ago

So so dense. So tight. So coiled. So elegant. So concentrated. Structured. Checking in tomorrow. Nose is so floral, a day later. Very mineral and so expressive. Palate is enormously complex, chewy and dense. My goodness the density of this wine is just insane. It’s barely budged overnight. Fleshier, yes but also there still is more to come. Day 3 awaits. — a year ago

Outrageous entry level Pinot Noir. Just crazy nose. The most lithe, elegant, detailed red cherry ever. A hint of dried cherry. Roses. Wow. Swiss alpine spice and green. Alpine meadow. 9.7 nose. Yowza. Palate is razor sharp with gorgeous, elegant tannins, that just short of sweet fruit thing Adank has mastered and an awesome mineral finish. Unreal stuff. — 22 days ago

Nose is hyper floral. Melon, wild mint, savory, MT on steroids yet lyrical. Stunning, sappy, deep, loads of dry extract, unreal density and juiciness. Such succulence, freshness, density and dry extract but with powerful fruit clarity. Love the bitter citrus pith on the finish. — 9 months ago

Pinot Blanc is usually “meh” in vinous form but not when it’s made by Patrick Adank. Varietally correct but oh so much more. Unreal purity and out of control finesse. So long, dense, nimble and stunning. Just insane mouthfeel. Art. — a year ago

Outrageous. Nose is all petroleum, honey, dried and wet mushrooms and so much umami. Palate has energy for days and unreal finesse and my god this is juicy. A real classically styled Auslese before Oechsle inflation. — 8 months ago

Just a stunning bottle of wine. The nose leaps out of the glad with bright, clearly defined mid season cherries. Gorgeously elegant and earthy with mineral notes that are so utterly refined you can almost smell the vines in that Alpine air. Wild flowers, so intense and pure. So supple and juicy with unreal juuuust almost not quite but barely sweet fruit which no one does like Adank. The most supple and velvety texture and finishes so delicately mineral it’s whispering. This is a stunning wine and for the $60 we sold it for one of the greatest Pinot Noir values ever. Adank is a giant. — a year ago
