DOPFF & IRION VORBOURG PINOT GRIS 2009 - AC Alsace Grand Cru, France (#292227) (M) - $17.95
Tasting Note:
Nice citrusy, honey and pine aromas from cork. Lots or orange and tropical fruit aromas from the glass. Medium-full bodied and creamy texture with lively acidity. Aroma replays of orange and tropical fruits, plus some spice. Medium in sweetness. Quite the intensity on mid-palate, leading to a long, balanced finish. Delicious! Recommended buy. Will be enjoying this with Piri Piri Chicken Burgers.
Pinot Gris...a great grape that has been diluted via Pinot Grigio. I'll have to check out some Alsace versions, mainly been sticking to US West Coast (Oregon).
ReplyDeleteI agree! Pinot Gris and Pinot Grigio - same grape, different styles. What a difference! Personally, I prefer a Gris over a Grigio and some of the versions from Alsace are the best around. Great value too!
