Weingut Gantenbein has become one of Switzerland’s most quietly celebrated domaines, based in Fläsch in the Bündner Herrschaft. Founded by Martha and Daniel Gantenbein, the estate is best known for Pinot Noir of striking finesse and clarity, alongside Chardonnay and a little Riesling. The wines are neither ostentatious nor merely Burgundian in imitation; they seem instead to translate the Alpine light and limestone-rich soils of Graubünden into something finely etched, fragrant and composed. In a country whose greatest wines too often remain a secret abroad, Gantenbein has become an essential reference point.
