Limestone Speaks:
2021 Enderle & Moll Pinot Noir Grand Cru Muschelkalk

Posted by Joe Salamone

Muschelkalk is one of the expressions of Pinot that blows people away. Each time we offer the wine, we are flooded with orders.

Enderle & Moll name their micro-production "Grand Crus" after the soil types on which they are grown: "Muschelkalk" translates to "limestone." This Pinot is, year after year, the most Burgundian wine from the estate.

The 2021 is simply superb; the strengths of the vintage - energy, lightness, rigor - play directly into the strengths and characteristics of this wine.

This is a tense and nervous Pinot Noir, compact with so much coiled-up energy; it unfurls in the glass or with a good decant. Shaved layers of crisp red fruit mix it up with taut darker heady fruit; the herbal aromatics are truly beguiling. The acidity is a live-wire, surging through the wine and somehow accentuating the limestone minerality and soil tones.

This is one of the best "Muschelkalks" Enderle & Moll has made - especially for you purists. Sadly, it was a very short vintage.

Given our quantities, we'll make the email short as well.
