Domaine Zind-Humbrecht Pinot Gris Clos Windsbuhl

Only the oldest vines (over 40 years old) from the Clos Windsbuhl Vineyard were used to produce this wine. This vineyard has the capacity to give a solid structure to the wine because of the smaller yields and nice minerality. Zind-Humbrecht's dedication to terroir expression guides all winemaking practices, which include extended pressing cycles, abbreviated clarification cycles (to retain natural yeasts and proteins in the must), natural malolactic fermentation and extended aging on the lees. The wine is aged 18 months in 40-year-old French barrels. Tasting notes: This pinot gris is a study in elegance, finesse and subtlety. The pure citrus and pear notes are supported by delicate floral and wet stone nuances over the long & tangy finish Pairs well with: Perfect with scallops or lobster dishes as well as sushi or ceviche.
