Gustave Lorentz, Pinot Gris Reserve Alsace 2021

93 points Wine Enthusiast
"In this wine, sweet pear aromas merge with a crisp saline scent. The palate is inflected with a creamy, slightly waxy texture that's not all that typical, but provides a welcome counterpoint to bright, lemon-drop acidity. A savory note of aged cheese leads into a long, tangy finish."

Vinous Reverie Notes
The grapes come from various hillside vineyards around the village of Bergheim, planted in heavy clay/limestone soil. Tasting Notes:  It is a smooth wine of finesse and distinction, with wild peach and pear on the nose. The white fruit extends to the generous and medium-bodied palate. It has a great mouth-filling texture, with a very enjoyable and dry finish, thanks to its balanced acidity. Food Pairing: A versatile wine, this Pinot Gris Reserve can be enjoyed as an aperitif or with a wide range of appetizers, especially foie gras. It also works well with game, mushrooms and other vegetables, as well as roasted meats, semi-soft cheeses and fruity desserts.
