I love this estate. Grassy nose of wild flowers, green apple, some minerals but a bit muted and quiet. It will come around. But the palate is where the party is at. Great acidity that is perfectly interwoven with the gorgeous grassy and wild flower infused fruit and finishes with extraordinary spice. Really awesome texture and ballerina like balance. This is terrific but needs a few hours. I will be back. As the airs the fruit starts to develop on the back end.

Wow. 24 hours late this is a stunner. Terrific elegance and structure and brilliant mouthfeel. Almost a 9.5. — 2 months ago

Beautiful nose of earthen scents, mid season cherry fruit, wild flowers, alpine grass and some sort of umami scents. Seems like it has more to give. Palate is fresh as a daisy with crazy energy and superb dark cherry fruit that really sticks to the palate. Terrific finish that clamps down. Awesome. A new value Pinot from Ziereisen’s Swiss project. Deep and ripe tannins and a lovey rusticity as well. Gorgeous minerals awash the finish along with loads of black cherry fruit. This is fantastic wine. Gets very chewy with air. But man the fruit here is extraordinary.

@Delectable Wine made a mistake. This is Riehen L’Unique Pinot Noir. Thanks. — 2 years ago

Terrific smokey aromas smothered in berries and cherries. Refined wildness. So floral and precise. Clear. Tiny berry fruit intensity and a lipstick like intensity. Woodland berry a forest aromas and a wonderful indescribable Alpine aromas. Just spectacular. The clarity is just amazing here. Palate is brilliant. Grippy and tanning but juicy and elegant. Nerds air but it’s still gentle but also commanding and what a fruit soak on the finish. Amazingly long finish. Switzerland continues to impress. I’ll be back. A hint of sweet raspberry jam on the nose but only a hint and so engaging. Adds so much. — 4 months ago

Riehen le petit sauvignon (sauvignon blanc).

Nose: wow. Yeasty. Briochy. Almost like champagne. There is something very complete about this.

Palate : dense. Rich. Good acidity. Amazing wine. Maybe the best sauvignon blanc I’ve ever had.
