90 Swiss wines with more than 90 points in the latest edition of the magazine "Wine Advocate" by Robert Parker
The number of Swiss wines rated above 90 points by Robert Parker’s magazine in its second report on Switzerland came in as a nice surprise to open a promising 2017 year for Swiss wines. The iconic Marie-Thérèse Chappaz or Martin Donatsch, the Estate Jean-René Germanier and a few more have all received between 93 and 97 Parker points. A real first for Switzerland since Parker acknowledged this wine country with a production the size of Alsace and a wine producing history going back to the Romans.
In its December 30, 2016 edition, distributed these days, the magazine Wine Advocate by Robert Parker published a second major report on Switzerland. Stephan Reinhardt has tasted a selection of about 200 wines "that have emerged on the occasion of various journeys in the country – a non exhaustive list", as he explains in his introduction. Among these 200 wines Reinhardt has retained 153, which were rated in the 228th issue of the magazine. Among these wines not less than 90 received more than 90 points - which is to date the best result obtained by Swiss wines in this publication.
The wines come from all six Swiss wine regions. The most noted cellars by Reinhardt are Marie-Thérèse Chappaz, Jean-René Germanier and Christian Zündel.
