Superbe "caveau" avec restauration limitée mais intéressante. J'y au dégusté un plat de viande froide des grisons. Bien présenté et plutôt copieux. Toutefois, la serveuse a oublié de mettre le couvert...Choix de vins étendu mais particulièrement élevé dans les prix.
L'environnement est simplement exceptionnel.
Jenins is located in the Bündner Herrschaft, the lovely wine region nearby Bad Ragaz and Maienfeld... one usually drives past it, on its way to St. Moritz or other ski-resorts of the kind in the Graubünden Canton.
Try to stop by one of these villages (Malans, Maienfeld, Jenins, Fläsch) and discover their wine-restaurants AND their wines. You'll be surprised.
The Alter Torkel is a beautiful restaurant, located on top of a vineyard. The menu is written on a black-board and the choice isn't very broad...which is a synonim to fresh though.
The old wine press (Torkel) is present in the one big, big room in which the restaurant is located. It is an impressive piece of furniture, a true reminder of the past times.
A wall is dedicated to the bottled wines: you can pick your own. With or without the help of the staff. No need for further decorations and a great selection. Good variety.
Dinner was very tasty, good size portions.
I can imagine this place as the location for a private event.
A pity that only regular wines are available by the glass.
Avoid the table next to the big entrance door as the draft of cold air will reach you every time it opens.
