  La rivière Thur qui coule au pied du Rangen apporte aussi l’humidité nécessaire au développement du botrytis. Toutefois, en 2013, un climat plus frais ainsi qu’une floraison tardive n’ont pas autorisé la production de tels vins. Le Pinot Gris Rangen fut récolté sain, avec de très faibles rendements, et le vin pu finir plus sec que d’habitude.

  05/07/2023 My last. Full white cherry and exotic fruit core, pebbly/granitic minerality and citrus balances its notable viscosity. Floral nuances. Full and just off-dry. A fine wine for spiced oriental cuisine.
  Till 2026.

  Pale gold. Honeyed notes on the nose. Nutty. Long finish. Sweet finish. Paired with halibut dinner. A bit sweeter than expected. Complex and really interesting pinot gris expression. Price to value is questionable but worth trying

  Fine accompaniment for our roast duck legs.
  Ripe exotic-tinged fruit, pebbly minerality and core acidity all bring this excellent full near-dry wine into perfect balance.
  Already drinking well, should peak over the next couple of years and perhaps for 10 years from vintage (in my view - others predict a much longer window!). 92+
