Greetings!
We picked up a new Grand Cru Alsace Pinot Gris, Domaine Sipp Mack Alsace Pinot Gris Grand Cru Rosacker 2016. It is one for the cellar with the ability to age another 20 to 25 years.
This off-dry Grand Cru holds a fruit driven freshness that is touched by a firm acidic backbone making it one of the most lively yet full-bodied palate fillers I've tasted in recent memory.
Wine from this vineyard will start out with yellow fruits that will slowly change over the decades to vanilla and caramel tones. Enjoy them in their youth or with some age, all a matter of personal preference.
Review:
Ripe, pristine notes of yellow pear on this wine's nose come with notions of creamy banana and vanilla. The palate carries rich, concentrated fruit, but in a precise fashion that channels the rounded ripeness into smooth generosity. A vein of freshness and smidge of sweetness give the fruit staying power and verve. Together they present an off-dry wine with immense potential and elegance. Drink by 2045.
