Gantenbein, a super famous and woody wine from Switzerland.

What vintage ? 2016 it seems ?

How was it ?

Well disclaimer first: I‘m a fan of those moderately aged <>Hs profiles. Yet this one is very good imo.

From the freshly opened bottle it is rather on the glue-y side on the nose with roasted and fruit-y notes coming later to the party. On the palate this is straight up very nice. Intense and rich with all the good stuff you would expect - grilled pineapple, roasted almonds, some funk and a well balanced woodiness.

ABV is a slightly below 60%, but that’s no downside. Very enjoyable as it is with ample power.

If you can give it a go. :slight_smile:

it’s an amazing wine. I‘d say the demerara among the Pinot Noirs. Rich, depth, woody and smoky which gives the grapes more intensity. I prefer the cabernet and syrah over the pinot, because the latter are complex but lighter wines. But this one is intense and rich stuff.
…ah, 2018

Dieser Stilbruch hat sich zumindest von den Prozenten her gerade angeboten. :joy:

Edit: Wo wir eben schon bei Neisson waren…:sunglasses:

I just put up some 19th century maps of the Caribbean above my rum cabinet and a vintage Martini ad above the bar cart.

Very pleased with the result! :slightly_smiling_face:
