2021 Enderle & Moll, Pinot Noir Buntsandstein, Baden, Germany Benoit Lahaye The AOC Gigondas is fermetned

The AOC Gigondas is fermetned entirely whole cluster w/ indigenous yeasts and vinified in a combination of new and used barrels

It is an elegant and understated wine with just enough grip to let you know it was skin-fermented but not too much to turn off the ‘casual’ orange wine drinker

the Classic is the perfect introduction to the world of single malt Scotch

It is the most slate driven wine

2021 Enderle & Moll, Pinot Noir Buntsandstein, Baden, Germany Benoit Lahaye The AOC Gigondas is fermetnedBuntsandstein is colored sandstone the vines here are a bit younger, somewhere around 60 years old. This wine is a bit wider, a bit more enveloping. On the palate the general register is similar to the Muschelkalk, yet it is more silky, a little more serpentine in structure. It shows a really lovely spectrum of red fruit on the palate really well integrated into soil and spice and structure. Probably showing the most complete right now though still
