The Goldgrube is Vollenweider's grand cru — drawn from the best plots and oldest vines, some over 100 years old and entirely ungrafted, from organically grown grapes. Now a decade in bottle, this is also a deeply poignant release — a wine made by the late Daniel Vollenweider, the visionary Swiss-born producer who passed away in 2022 and whose legacy endures in every bottle. Mysterious and multilayered on the nose, with intense mineral depth, smoky slate, and sweetness seamlessly woven into a delicately chiseled acid structure. A wine of rare, unhurried nobility.
Pair with glazed pork belly.
