Domaine Zind-Humbrecht Pinot Gris Heimbourg

Pinot Gris

Vintage: 2021
Description: The Pinot Gris is planted on the upper part of the Heimbourg vineyard in Turckheim. Facing west, on a steep slope, it enjoys a relatively cool climate being exposed to the valley winds. The Oligocen limestone soil is here a complex combination of old Oolithic pebbles cemented in an aggressive calcareous limestone, rich in iron (red colour). The mouth is very dry, but supported by a velvety texture that brings a certain roundness on the middle palate. Medium long finish, supported by a salivating acidity and a very elegant structure. The longer full lees contact we do with the Pinot Gris wines bring a definite richness and intensity, but also makes the wine close up more just after bottling. So like for most of our wines, decantation, if opened young, is very helpful.
