Pinot Gris Vendanges Tardives 2009 93 YB W&S Aug20

YEAR’S BEST ALSATIAN WINES; This pinot gris has aged into its succulent and generous ripeness, the lees transformed to hazelnut richness, the wine elegant on a grand scale. Along with cheeses and nuts, this will elevate an after-dinner conversation. Or … as a counterpoint to a walnut-orange tart drizzled with bitter chocolate. – J.G.
