The nose immediately pulls you in. Just spellbinding. Insane florals and black cherry plus mid season red cherries and crazy spice. Cranberry bog and mashed blackberries as well. Just a stunning nose. 9.7. Palate starts off with some pokey acid but there is an engaging suppleness underneath and a gorgeous plush texture. Soft yet firm like a great mattress. Wow the black cherry on the nose is super elite. Textured, juicy and really coming into its own. The fruit on the palate is outrageous and top top notch. The nose gets herbal with loads of Swiss alpine love and unreal clarity. The texture is like a pillow and the fruit presentation on the palate is just next level. So silky like the most silky I have had less Brisset. Stunning wine. Curious to see where it goes but right now it’s blowing my mind. After 5 hours open the nose is buzzing with herbs, cherry skins and luscious cherry fruit that is all red. Glorious, Nose still a 9.7, but closer to a 9.8 now. Palate is silkier but also a bit closer, which these wines tend to do. Go through a closed phase like this and re-emerge. Let’s see what tomorrow brings. — 5 days ago
Brilliant nose. Unreal barrel spice, green apple skins, ripe pear and some melon. Staggeringly pure. Wafting salty minerals. Really gorgeous. Palate is ripe and rich with just insane complexity. Juicy and so clean. Unreal finesse and delicacy. So mouthwatering and pure. Super juicy and clean. Terrific inner mouth aromas and endless depth. Outrageous. A stunning Equinces. Wow the nose on this wine is incredible. Wafting! — 10 days ago
@Delectable Wine this is Cabernet Franc. Thanks!
Baden Cabernet Franc. Yup. Stunning. Nose is ashen violets. Mesmerizing. Deep, delicate and layered. 9.7 nose. Blown away. Palate is so achingly beautiful. Juicy and so perfectly balanced and jaw dropping pure with sweet tannins and a firm mineral backbone. Fresh and energetic and full of energy. Just brilliant stuff. It’s got elite elegance. Really has a floating mid palate and unreal concentration. So fresh. Just stunning fruit and freshness. — 2 days ago
Perfect snow wine. Deep, dark, brooding and continually unfolding. Deep black and green olive, lavender, feral, meaty, and wildly floral. Blackberry. Palate is so generous and has unreal purity and palate presence. Silky, sweet fruit that is so pure. Ripe and deep with much energy and depth. Needs air but this an epic wine. — 6 days ago
Outrageous. Just crazy. Huge herbals. Huge florals. Tree bark, citrus stem, unreal aromas. Confectionary. Nose is a 9.9. Just incredible. Palate is just killer. Super elegant and deep with a midpalate I can get lost in. Superb fruit soak and unreal purity. Gently concentrated. Pure apple, melon and apricot fruit. Drinking so well now. After 16 hours open this continues to develop amazingly. Unreal confectionary nose. Some classic vulcanized rubber and unreal clarity. This is genius. Smarties nose. Palate is so fine and nimble but it’s got some weight and heft. Juicy and so clean. Icing on a cake texture. Just stunning. — 7 days ago
A rock star of a wine. Just stunning. Nose is all red and black cherries and just so layered and hedonistic. 2022 is soooo good right now. Juicy and dense with serious structure and unreal black cherry fruit tempered by such fierce minerality. But it’s all so elegant. Insane freshness and purity. This is young but the explosiveness, concentration and tiny berry fruit intensity are top notch here. I know my score will rise. Insanely long finish. All class. — 4 days ago
So brilliant. Nose of meyer lemon, seashells, that Chablis soul. Palate is round and rich yet taught and linear. Clearly needs air for the finish to fan out. But is sneakily persistent. So good and will get way better with air. Always does here. Wow with some air. This got elite quick. — 5 days ago
Absolutely a delicious wine. Amazingly sweet crackly fruit, velvety but substantial tannin and terrific length and freshness. Huge floral bouquet. Very complex and spicy. Needs air but amazing. Even better day 2 with black cherry Gamay fruit and awesome length, crackle and freshness. — 8 days ago

Fantastic. Brilliant palate. Superb integration and confident. So elegant. Mineral on an elemental level and such luscious mouthfeel with such a nice touch of lush opulence. Masterful. Aromas are a bit mute as it was in the back of the fridge. Lol. — 2 days ago
