Gorgeous aromas of cherry, sweet berries, an amalgam of spices, stunning earth and a deep penetrating minerality. Very high toned and super bright. Just so aromatic with tremendous depth. Palate is so juicy and silken with just explosive mid and early drain cherry fruit. A supple and alluring texture and sweet but just sweet fruit that really stakes a claim on your palate. Very minimal tannins and extraordinary balance and purity. This is a true ballerina style wine. It’s so nimble but also full of flavor. Has great length and just the right amount of sap. Really fresh and invigorating acidity. Love the texture as well. Really compelling wine. Like e and m but not natural.

Gorgeous Swiss Pinot from Maienfeld. Nose is bright, high toned and beautiful. Lovely mid season cherries. Sour cherries and such purity. Really refined and aromatic. Also an earthiness that is really reminiscent of Burgundy more than Germany. The palate tho is where this really picks up steam, unreal texture and just so stunningly beautiful. Wow. Opulence on the mid palate then this gorgeous, cleansing mineral finish. So finessed and filigreed. Nimble and energetic. Decadent sweet fruit awash in minerals. So refreshing but also complex and deep. This is excellent. The energy, stunningly pure and unique fruit and how mineral this is really stand out. Superb wine. So excited now to taste the pilgrim. The higher end wine.

Transparent wild red berry and tamarind juice. Notes of chestnut lead into a palate that is juicy, with silky tannins. A biscuity, salty, delicious pinot with remarkable structure to boot.

This needs an hour decant.

Nose is floral. Early season cherry. Mountain herbs.

Palate is very precise early season cherry. Excellent juiciness.

Long and sapid finish. So juicy.

92.5 on open.

Has this alpine character. A Bourgogne rouge … but a decidedly Swiss one.

As this opens some elegant richness and more density. More delicious.

Bought from fass selections.

Still tight. The nose is there but not the palate.
