Rene Mure, Clos Saint Landelin Pinot Gris Grand Cru, Vorbourg

Für einen Elsässer GC sehr schlanker, frischer Pinot Gris. Komplett trocken, aber toller Extrakt, frische Säure und präsente Frucht.

Lots of lemon, pear, beeswax, some phenolic element, and tropical fruit like starfruit. Almost riesling-like on the nose, but much more restrained acidity on the palate. Very well balanced and delicious.

Yet another marvellous Alsace white. There is so much going on here, like blossoming elderflower, vanilla drenched apricots, almond paste and Golden Delicious apples, and everything plays together in such a delightful, harmonic way.

First class Pinot Gris, complex and intense. Beautiful aromas and flavors of passion fruits, pears and honey. Fresh, well balanced and very lean, suave and very long finish.
