Why pinot Gris deserves more respect. Full of flavor, with an unctuous texture and minerality

First Alsace Pinot Gris in a while. Ripe fruit, good acidity. Worth drinking in next couple of years

For me, the honeyed delights and floral complexities of this Alsatian wine remind me why they are among my favorites. To my palate, it borders on perfection.

Beautiful, rustic nose of peat, licorice, black tea, spicebox, almond, mushroom and dried autumn fruit. Soft entree, dry-ish mouthfeel, nuances of warm pastry, apricot and orange oil. Lovely bitterness in the finish, sufficient acidity. All in all, really a wonderful, vivid, fresh and interesting glass of white wine.
From .375, totally a point.
