Alsace Pinot Gris


• The exceptional Alsatian soil is mostly made up of granite,
limestone, clay, and volcanic soil, providing the perfect canvas
for Pinot Gris. It’s a naturally aromatic grape, so winemaking
here is focused on retaining the aromas and flavors of the
grapes. Traditional winemakers often use large oak barrels, to
minimize the addition of oaky flavors to the wine.
• Alsace Pinot Gris wines are rich, layered, and full-bodied, with
beguiling aromas of lime, meyer lemon, green apple, a hint of
white flowers, and notes of dried fruits and honey. They often
have a silky texture and a medium to high acidity, which makes
them perfect for aging.

Foodpairing
• Classic food pairings include local foods like chestnuts and aged
cheeses, but these wines can beautifully accompany a variety
of dishes, from the distinctive flavor of venison, to spicy Thai
coconut curry.
