WINEMAKER'S NOTE
Only in the greatest vintages do we make top selections of grapes from the choicest vineyard plots to fashion a rich, weighty, opulent wine which can take many years to develop its full potential. A massive wine that fills the mouth with succulent fruit. Ripe, but not too much, this wine is rich, complex and fat, with a beautiful structure and length. Fruitiness, dryness and smokyness are its typical characters from Alsace and make this Pinot Gris a nice companion of food. It goes together with terrines, foie gras, smoked fishes and fish in sauce, and especially salmon and white meats. It is the ideal read more...compagnon of spicy, oriental and asiatic foods thanks to its exquisite fruitiness which confers fullness and perfect harmony. (hide)

    Rich and fragrant nose, apricot and touch of botrytis. Very ripe fruits in the palate, creamy texture, full-bodied. Very charming, meaty, extract rich, good acidity. Beautifully balanced. Aging potential 10 + years. Delicious with rich dishes. Foi - gras or goose-liver pate, veal sweat breads, duck filets... Excellent wine to be matched with creamy sauces and mushrooms. Great companion to many fish dishes, smoked salmon for instance, Dove Sole, Turbot, Monkfish, Seabass... Great companion to white meats, veal, poultry, chicken...in white wine sauces.
