Weingut Riehen
Le Petit Pinot Blanc Chardonnay
Riehen, Basel-Landschaft, Switzerland
This is showing so well. What a preposterous value. Super herbal nose. So intense. Full of uniqueness. Palate is rich, ripe and so pure. Intense flavors. Sappy and palate staining.

Dec 24th, 2022Stunning nose of alpine scents. Flowers, grass, herbs, some rich apples and so much more. Smells super Swiss. Wow palate is so explosive, fresh and intense. So sappy and pure. Amazing finish of those alpine scents one finds on the nose. Really unique and delicious. One of the most unique and delicious wines I’ve ever had. Awesome purity and what acids!!

Nose is floral with integrated richness. Expansive. As this opens you get the godspice. So penetrating and expansive. Elegantly rich. Mountain air infused with Chardonnay. Ocean air. Bit in a good way. Like you are watching the sunset on a cliff with a light breeze.
Palate is lovely rich fruit. Delicious. Good minerality. Almost a mountain meursault feel. Terrific crunchy acids as this opens. Oyster shells
Still a hint of oak. Should dissipate in 6-12 months.
Man this is a beautiful wine. It’s its own thang. Nothing exactly like it. Could be a higher score in 2 years.
Bought from fass selections.
