2019 Gantenbein Pinot Noir

Community Tasting Note

Friday, March 1, 2024 - Opened in Courchevel. P&P and enjoyed slowly.

This was more yielding than the 2017 I had about 1.5 years ago, and pleasantly surprising in that way. Mostly showing red fruits, already quite expressive and sweet on the nose and palate too. Enjoyable to drink but didn't quite get too much complexity, even though this is quite bold on the palate, well made and very clean.

There's a lot of hype around Gantenbein and it's undoubtedly good, but I'm not sure if it's worth the price these days. There are comparable village burgs for much less. A pleasure to drink if offered but unsure if I'll deliberately seek this out unless I happen to be in Ch or around the area. Always a pleasure though to try something with G & M!
