Alsace, located in northeastern France along the Rhine River, is renowned for its exceptional white wines and unique cultural blend of French and German wine-making influences. The region’s diverse geology and dry climate contribute significantly to its wines’ distinctive characteristics. Alsatian wines are celebrated for their purity, aromatic intensity, and expression of terroir.
Domaine Zind-Humbrecht Heimbourg Pinot Gris is intensely yellow. The nose features white fruit aromas of pear and peach, with a hint of smokiness and wax. It’s very dry on the palate, with a smooth texture and a pronounced acidity featuring white fruits and a subtle smokiness. The finish is long with lingering fruit notes and a bracing acidity.
