Schlossberg Balgach is a Pinot of assured stature. Burgunder-style, as Philipp says: a rich body, but never heavy, a full, juicy texture, supported by a straightforward freshness. Black cherry, plum, smoky touch. The tannins are present, fine, polished, integrated. It's his "best horse," he says—we believe him without hesitation. Meticulously cared-for parcel, precise vinification, aging in old barrels: everything is done to allow the terroir and the rhythm of the fruit to express themselves. Decant or cellar, depending on your mood. A profound Pinot, yet still gluggable. Because at Grob, that's non-negotiable.
