My goodness this is a pretty wine. Smells like suiker-brod which is a brioche style bread loaf baked with pockets of sugar that melt and partially caramelize from holland. With freshness of lime zest. Clean slate. A little smoke and honey.

A delicious example of an old vine Pinot Blanc from Alsace. Bursting with fresh apricots and searing minerality, the intense nutmeg and baking spices dance across freshly baked apples. A savory note peeks out like a shy child from grilled peaches, while white flowers are throughout. An excellent example of aromatic whites from the region. |sample

A little hint of bitterness on the back end. Nice Pinot Blanc RSV from Boxler. I prefer cooler vintages it would seem.

This is a French wine… well it also depends on who won the war.
They dug caves and hid wine.
The wine is crisp with a very green apple but not over powering.

Fat, savory, with acid for days. I’d like it ten years older. Great shit.
