Perfect. I am not into high ratings or superlatives. But this is it. Powerful and ridiculous dense fruit. Elderflower mostly!!!! red and black currant. Can run another 2-3 years but wouldn’t risk it at this stage. My 2012’s were suitcase imports it was a time when the winery considered to stop importing to the US. I convinced them otherwise. One of the very few wines which still tickles my palate in ways other wines - just don’t! Often they just made one barrel 300 bottles.

Jul 27th, 2026Pocked with a Coravin weeks ago. I thought the 12’ was risky. But when you ‘think you know Enderle & Moll you actually don’t’. Dark cherries, lots of lift and freshness, orange zest, touch resinous, crushed rocks, lime, hint kaffir lime, Japanese cypress. Needs more time but shows now much better. After being disturbed and retried. Definitely wait! 13%. So! So little color - elegant. E&M’s Pinot’s are the most unique and most challenging to taste on the planet. World Class.

May 16th, 2022At first ultra angry! Brown tinge. Needs a 5 hour decant! Really I am not joking. Store 5 -10 more years. Marble dust, cigar box, aged cherries, still very tannic, tight, lime, orange zest. Needs more time. This could be incredible - wait. I will stash it away and revisit 2027. Of the four 2009 - 2012 the most difficult.
