From clayey vineyards around Westhofen, picked by hand and vinified in large old oak casks, the 2022 Grauer Burgunder trocken shows an intense, refined and elegant bouquet with ripe white fruit and discreet sur lies aromas (aged on the full lees until March). Bottled in April, this is a medium-bodied, very elegant and finely grippy Pinot Gris with juicy fruit and delicate bitters on the finish, with ripe pears on the aftertaste and a salivating salinity. This is an excellent gastronomic wine with good length and persistent varietal aromas. 12.5% stated alcohol. Screw cap. Tasted at the domaine in July 2023.
