Description

// Handpicked from the slopes of Grand Cru Praelatenberg. Aged for 12 months on lees in stainless steel tanks (70%) and oak barrels (30%)

"The bouquet immediately develops intense aromas of yellow fruits (peach, apricot) and exotic fruits (pineapple). It is seductive and captivating from the moment it is opened. The attack, juicy and crisp with fruit, demonstrates a concentration of substance noted by the tasters. Powerful flavors of citrus and ripe white fruit emerge on the mid-palate, and the ample and richly endowed finish seduces with its length and perfect balance. A wine ready for fine dining." - Winemaker Notes

"This Pinot Gris brings a bit more tension with lively citrus and orchard fruit at the forefront. The hint of spice adds some complexity, but overall, it's still a bit restrained. While it's an enjoyable wine, it doesn't quite reach the level of excitement, offering balance without much flair" - Aleks Zecevic

"The 2023 Pinot Gris from Les Frères Engel shows generous orchard fruit aromas of pear and baked apple, lifted by hints of honey and spice. On the palate, it is textured yet balanced, with a gentle richness cut by fresh acidity and a lingering mineral edge. Crafted from organically and biodynamically farmed vines, it captures both the estate’s precision and Alsace’s classic varietal character, offering versatility for the table and charm in its youth." - Cork and Co, Importer
