Zind Humbrecht, Pinot Gris, Clos Windsbuhl 2003

Straw/light copper.

Nondescript jellied white fruit and spice nose.

Immense textural sweetness in the mouth, quickly put in its place by (seemingly) firm acidity. Not very interesting in the mouth, but does have a "mineral" edge that will please purists. Pure, in its own way, but lacks any real interest. This could use some botrytis.

16% alcohol, Indice 1 (dry)

$50 Opened yesterday.
