Zind-Humbrecht Clos Windsbuhl Pinot Gris 1999
Varietal: Pinot Gris/Grigio
Vineyard: Zind-Humbrecht
Region: Alsace, France - Other regions
Despite a very slow fermentation, this wine kept much of its residual sweetness. The small yields and the poor nature of the soil (calcareous muschelkalk) provides a harmonious balance to the wine. The quality of this terroir brings delicacy and elegance to this rich wine as well as an aromatic complexity, showing already huge exotic flavours. The 1999 can be compared to the 1988, except perhaps with a more pronounced acidity.
