Skin-contact Pinot Gris from the Neuberg vineyard in Buhl, northwest of Guebwiller in the Haut-Rhin (Alsace). Slightly cloudy, medium salmon color. Complex nose with aromas of candied orange, pink grapefruit and hints of red fruit and sweet spices. Round, medium bodied. Citrus flavors, good acidity. Long finish with grapefruit notes. — 4 years ago
Complex and top-notch but very sweet. Needed some really spicy food, less enjoyable on its own. Hard to believe this was pitched to me as sec / Demi-sec — 6 years ago
Sour and sweet aroma with pear and taste, very special. Delicious wine. Minerally and acidic. Highly balanced. 2014 @950(1140), Fwine -, 211030-211206 — 4 years ago

Classic Pinot Gris from south facing slopes in the Guebwiller valley in Alsace. Off dry on the palate with some apple, pear and a touch of citrus. With good acidity and minerality, the wine did open up some more in the glass. Still youthful, it had a very refreshing mouthfeel. This would pair well with fois gras and soft cheeses.

I celebrated another year on this planet earlier this week, always glad when I am continuing to count days gone by! Some fun stuff in the works for tonight.
Birth year bottle, yes, I'm old... Notes forthcoming... Smelling great in the recent decant!
Intense rehydrated pineapple, light sweet, absolutely awesome, can't wait to open the 'better' bottle in another couple months for my wife's b-day! — 7 years ago
Lychee, candied peach, white flowers, lemon zest, and ginger. Heavy mouthfeel could come across as almost syrupy if not served at proper temperature (cold.) Very traditional, good wine. — 8 years ago
Урюк, айвовый конфитюр, манго, кленовый сироп, подсохшие соты, прополис, даржилинг, тмин, лёгкая горечь на финише. Золотой цвет, полное, увесистое тело. Концентрация и сладость уравновешиваются все ещё живой, хоть и не вибрирующей кислотностью. Открыто и развито, экспрессивно, местами прямолинейно, не слишком утончённо и сложно. — 8 years ago
