| Description: |
|
Established for the last two hundred and fifty years in Alsace, this wine is a subtle blend of Tokay Pinot-Gris hails from the sunny South/South-East facing slopes of Bergheim. The Pinot-Gris aromas are very delicate, bringing to mind the terroir of its birth. A good structure, balance and length are all hallmarks of a great dry white wine. Can be drunk young but ages wonderfully, developing subtle aromas of honey and candied fruit. Will keep for at least 10 years. (12 x 75 cl)

Gustave Lorentz Pinot Gris Reserve Alsace
Description: Established for the last two hundred and fifty years in the vine-growing area of the medieval city of Bergheim, the vineyard extends over the steeply sloping south face of the Grasberg hillock, at an altitude of between 220 and 320 metres. South-facing and at a distance from the Vosgian front, the steep slope favours a warm and temperate micro-climate, together with even temperatures and hygrometry. In the heart of the Ribeauville fault mosaic, split into layers of limestone and marl from the lower and mid-Jurassic periods, the Altenberg is composed of very stony, reddish, somewhat shallow soil of marl, sand and lime, commonly referred to as clayey-limestone. The rich and delicate aromas and full-bodied mouth are the characteristics of this wine combined with great length. (12 x 75 cl)
