Zind Humbrecht 2020 Pinot Gris Roche Calcaire 750ml

Caramelized-pear and very ripe melon and guava notes pour from the glass of this rich but only demi-sec Alsace pinot gris. Notes of cinnamon and allspice that you don’t find in the nose. Then comes the bright, chalky acidity that beautifully balances the creaminess and spice at the long finish. Just 12.4% alcohol, yet ripe through and through. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold.
