Tasting notes
The 2021 Pinot Noir is as spicy, precise and fresh on the intense and aromatic nose as if it had been fermented with whole clusters. In fact, the grapes were completely destemmed, like all Gantenbein Pinots so far. This is a full-bodied, refined and textural Pinot with remarkably delicate acidity, fine tannins and stimulating salinity on the finish, which is very long, intense and complex. 96/100 (03.2024) - robertparker.com
What a beautifully refreshing summer wine for ambitious wine freaks! Gantenbein's 2021 Pinot Noir opens with a deep, pure, slightly flinty and toasty yet intensely fruity bouquet with raspberry and blackberry as well as chocolate and oak aromas. Full-bodied, straight and fresh on the palate, this is a very elegant, juicy, silky textured and full-bodied Pinot with a straight, tight, long and saline finish that reveals fine but grippy tannins. Impressive wine! 94+/100 (06.2023) - robertparker.com
