2022 Philip Lardot Pinot Noir Landwein, Mosel, Germany

$42.00

Pre-order item

Easy rusticity and picture-perfect balance—this is single-vineyard Pinot Noir from the Wintricher Grosser Herrgott by Stein’s protégé Philip Lardot.

For those of you with some reference for Mosel Pinot Noir, Lardot’s version rests somewhere in between the more textural yet clear style of Ulli Stein and the rather severe and crystalline style of Jonas Dostert in the Obermosel.

Lardot’s version has restraint and energy, yet is also generous and layered, with a rather surprising level of detail and complexity. The red berry fruit is mouthwatering and alive, the herbal details fresh and vivid. The minerality is Mosel.
