Gantenbein's 2007 Pinot Noir is beautifully intense and fruity on the crystalline and refined nose where potted and cooked wild strawberries are displayed. This is a perfectly matured Pinot, and I can hardly resist swallowing my tasting pour. This is a beautifully refined and balanced, silky-textured and crystalline Pinot with great intensity, very fine tannins and a very long and growing finish. Folks, this is a beauty: ripe, elegant and refined but also dramatic and firm. A great wine indeed. Tasted November 2018.
Producer
Gantenbein
Along the breathtaking Rhine Valley of Grisons, the Gantenbein winery is found in the small wine-growing village of Fläsch. Founded in 1982 by Martha and Daniel Gantenbein, they began by planting their 6-hectare estate with Burgundy clones. Today the property is predominately dedicated to Pinot Noir production, while much smaller areas are devoted to Chardonnay and Riesling growth. Martha and Daniel agreed early on that quality was key – therefore meticulous viticulture and vinification processes are followed. They even use gravity-feed tanks, where the flow of the grapes and the juice is regulated by the earth’s natural pressure without the need of pumps or filters. Along with their top Pinot Noirs, the estate also crafts two smaller production wines of Riesling and Chardonnay.
