With all the new vineyards coming into production on our estate, there is a natural inclination to start doing some single block bottlings. However, we have held fast to the idea that we will only do such bottlings when a block really stands out for its unique character. The block of Wadenswil clone next to our “White Barn” has stood out from the beginning due to its unique exposure and slightly different soils. For this wine we pick a little bit earlier, and use some stems in the fermentation to vinify a wine with light, delicate structure and a more red-fruit driven expression of Pinot Noir.
