"Crisp fruit, supple, finely spiced body, lively but very fine tannins for this wine that hits the bull's eye and stands out from the crowd, luminous and invigorating, endowed with excellent energy for want of more complexity." (La Revue du Vin de France, March 2022 n°658)

Note and review by M. CHRISTIAN G. Published on 26/01/2024
For this price, and in organic form, we have a fine, well-colored Alsatian Pinot, still a little hard, but with, for a Pinot of this type, a lovely chewy texture.
