Domaine de l'Ecu Faust 2020
46.60₣ (Exc. VAT bot. 75 cl.) / Switzerland
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Destemmed by hand and aged on the skins for one year and, after pressing, for three months in tanks, the intensely golden-yellow but cloudy 2020 Faust Cuvee MMXIV offers a pure, intense and fresh nose with floral and grassy aromas underlined by ripe and aromatic fruit with notes of bitter oranges. Pure, dry and tight on the palate, this is a bit austere for my tastes, but it's structured, saline and elegant. The wine doesn't open up today, but there is a serious structure and complexity that give hope for a more sustainable finish in the future. Bottled in early September 2021. 12% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at ProWein in Düsseldorf in May 2022.
