Alsace Pinot Gris
Alsace, France
Dense, palate-coating, slightly waxy. Tremendous fruit concentration in 2017 with perhaps 3 or 4 grams sugar for added weight.

I really liked the 2014 version. This 2017 seems to be more of a late-harvest style, with too much dried ripe fruit.

A bit of wax, a white flower note, some yellow fruits notes too. Quite inviting. The palate shows a massive acid backbone which gives a strong drive. There is a little thickness on the sides which could come from a little residual sugar. There is indeed a sweet note. Very long finish with yellow fruits and a tangy note which makes it very easy going and calls for another glass. This is great!
