Pinot Gris Turckheim 2018
Trade Tools
France / Vins D'Alsace
Pinot Gris from the flat alluvial gravel vineyards surrounding the winery. Ideal full sun exposure ensures that these wines are very ripe, opulent and fruit-driven.
Harvest Note
Abundant sunshine and timely moisture led to a full crop with grapes in a fine healthy state. Full volumes returned especially with the vines which had been damaged by frost in the previous year.
Tasting Note
Typical white flower notes (acacia, peonie) dominate the aromas, sleek and energetic presence on the palate with a moderately long dry finish.
