This has an elegant and pretty nose of sage, mushrooms, red berry fruit, orange slices, wet stones and minerals. It’s sleek, fresh and tight-grained, with a medium body and a precise finish. Drink or hold. Screw cap. (CN)

Crushed red berries and fresh stems meet herbal notes and the spice of whole peppercorns being cracked. Bright and vibrant, the palate offers a beautifully structured experience that's both lively and elegant. Super tasty with a tart, savory finish that lingers. Pair with grilled lamb chops for a bold flavor match. (JP)

The estate's top Pinot Nero plots, located between 530m and 700m above sea level. Deep, mineral red fruits with some underlying subtle spice give an accessible yet high quality wine. Poised, fresh and light on its feet, it's an absolute pleasure to sip. (JB)

Vinous

Review Date: 12/2025
The 2021 Pinot Nero Schweizer is darkly floral, mixing nuances of cola with crushed blackberries and sage. Its silken textures soothe as ripe red and blue fruits flow across a stream of cooling acidity. Gently tannic and long, the 2021 leaves hints of licorice and a tart cranberry twang. (EG)

Notes

Schweizer brings together selected Pinot Nero sites in Alto Adige, with vineyards reaching 700 meters above sea level. Franz Haas describes a patchwork of silt, sand, limestone and pebbly soils, coupled with dense planting and an in-house selection of low-yielding clones. For the 2021, Vinous describes a silky texture and ripe berry fruit carried by cooling acidity. The tannins remain gentle, while cranberry adds a tart note to the long finish. Wine Enthusiast also emphasizes a tart, savory finish and suggests serving the wine with grilled lamb chops.
