Lucien Albrecht Pinot Gris Pfingstberg Alsace Grand Cru 2015

This Pinot Gris presents a pale yellow colour with gold tints. It develops a refined nose with aromas of empyreumatic yellow fruits. After a supple attack, it is ample, silky with a great complexity.

A very mild spring followed by high temperatures in June and July, with episodes of severe drought accompanied by stormy passage allowed a vintage with a perfect health status of the grapes. 2015 devoted the talents of experienced balancing actors: the management of alcohol balance / residual sugars / acids needed to be very precise.

Critical Acclaim

93 Wine Enthusiast

Ripe, juicy yellow pear and honey carry the nose. The palate hits with a touch of sweetness that boosts the ripe pear fruit but, it is countered by zesty lemon and a pleasantly bitter streak of phenolics. The result is a rounded, powerful and concentrated wine. Drink now2028.
