50th. Almost no memory of this. Elegant and pure. So nimble. Did get lost. Not a wine to drink with a bunch of other wines. — a month ago

Smokey and herbal on the nose with glorious red fruits (sour cherry, early season cherry) and that alpine Swiss herbal thing. Palate is wonderful and deep with astonishing purity and so nimble and elegant. More notes soon just spilled wine all over my pants. Wow the spice factor on the palate is just stunning. A spice bomb. Now the fruit on the nose is gorgeous depth to it. Gorgeous cherry fruit that is startlingly pure. Sweet alpine fruit and spice with silky texture. So juicy and clean. Great complexity and depth. Terrific grip and structure. — 5 months ago

The Swiss are coming on strong. A beautiful, easy drinking red. Lighter body, medium to higher acid just as I like it. — 9 months 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.

So open and expressive. Unreal nose of hay, wild flowers, herbs and iodine a bit more closed than unique. So intense and bracing with wild flowers, minerals, iodine and green apple grip. ricola, wine version of ricola. Rich, yet grippy! — 6 months ago

This nose is it. Palate is insane. So perfect. The energy combined with the red fruits, wild flowers, herbs and the most amazing sweet, ripe and red fruited velvet tannins makes this one of the best Pinots of the trip. Potential to be a 10.0 in a decade or sooner. — 6 months ago
