Enderle & Moll
Baden Pinot Noir 2013
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 😆. — 14 days ago

Les Champs Fulliots Monthelie 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2015
10 years in the bottle. Needed a weekday break. Tried over 5 days under Argon. This is excellent. And very classy. Closed at first - then after 2 days a real beauty. Deep dark cherry, 🍒 hint forest floor, bark, tannins almost fully resolved 13.5%. Hint Turmeric, black tea. Drink Now! — a month ago
Precedent
Wirz Vineyard Riesling 2019
Planted in 1964, on deep granitic sand, and some on the darker clay loam that’s weathered from limestone. Dry farmed!!!!, head trained, and organic. Riesling roots can go down up to 60 feet. So these vines get their 💦. Dry, 13.5%. Aged in foudre for 10 months. A heirloom. Almost no diesel aka kerosene. Plenty of acid. Jasmine. Not my cup of tea but interesting. — 10 days ago

This really does have Chambolle character. See Lyle’s notes. Light in color, bright, some tea notes but for the most part beautiful fruit, touch cherry, raspberry, citrus… and very soft tannins - days later under my Argon line- faint prune plum. Wouldn’t age this - it is perfect now! — 9 days ago
