Boundlessly generous and exuberantly fruity, the 2019 white Alsace Pinot Gris Réserve Blanc is a born seducer. A wine of superb aromatic concentration, with a very ripe nose of spices and yellow fruit. The generous palate continues this exalted register, with beautiful maturity and always great purity. Made from old vines in Brand and Heimbourg, between granite and clay-limestone soils, this full-bodied, fleshy pinot gris, with its enveloping sweetness, is simply irresistible. It's ready to drink over 5 years, as an aperitif or at the beginning of a meal. Rated 92/100 by the Committee. |
