Graves meets Switzerland. Love this wine. Pungent nose of mystifying alpine scents. Greengage, grass, hay, wild flowers. Some grapefruit. Yellow not pink. Such purity to the aromas. Smells like you outside in the cleanest Swiss field ever. Palate is massive, concentrated and so pure. Tiny berry fruit intensity. Fruits are apple, apricot and some gooseberry. So textured. Rich but light on its feet. Great acids and structure. Long finish. Grassy on the palate as well with such distinctive minerality. This will likely benefit from 2-3 years of age. — 3 years ago

Nose: elegant. Fresh cut hay. As it opens mountain air.

Palate: seashells. Lemon zest. See t minerals. As it opens gods lemon juice.

Needs air. 44 minutes.

As it opens. Salivatory. So good. So distinctive.

This is an iconic Swiss wine. It’s up there with great burgundies. But so different.

Gorgeous aromas. Mid season sweet cherry fruit, spices, some gorgeous sweet oak, wet earth, florals and aromas that penetrate deep in the nasal cavity. Almost some barely ripe blackberry and cassis. Really a whole world of difference than last August. Just silly good aromas. Palate is ripe and juicy with a lithe, silky texture. Awesome purity and balance and such haunting delicacy. Sweet fruit and so nimble this is shockingly great. I vastly underrated this last time. Sweet, lithe and ripe tannins. This is stunning and achingly beautiful. 9.6 for now. Let’s see what air does to this. — 2 years ago

A perfect bottle of this wine. A true emotional experience. Can go toe to toe with any top white wine in the world. And it’s Sauvignon Blanc! Best bottle ever of this and wine of the trip so far. — 10 months ago

Tannins are really smooth now, wine is super round and balanced. Classic red aromas, wood, spice. Luscious chocolate and a hint of red fruit, cedar box, tobacco. Really great wine now, drinking much better than when I first tried it 6+ years ago. Well done Walla Walla. — 3 years ago
