Kuentz-Bas
Alsace Blanc
Pfersigberg, Eguisheim - Wettolsheim, Alsace, France
A golden pear hue on the eyes, this Alsatian blend of Riesling, Sylvaner, Pinot Blanc, Muscat, Pinot Gris, and Gewurtztraminer has a rich, viscous bit of swirl to it which leads to an ample helping of white fruits and limestone on the nose. After a bit of a breath the body gracefully develops and concentrates into a single and soulful note that works all of the wine’s components into an extremely well-balanced expression of all that’s involved. These kinds of white blends from Alsace, to me at least, are a dramatically over-looked treasures that (for the moment) are waiting patiently for those of us thirsty at our local wine shops.
