Zind Humbrecht, Clos Jebsal Pinot Gris Size:6x375ml this is quite a refined

this is quite a refined wine in the context of the universe of Corton grands crus and this impression is also abetted by the presence of very fine-grained tannins

The Asili vineyard was purchased in 1961

The supporting tannins seem ripe so my rating offers the benefit of the doubt that the dryness is due to the recent bottling

which resolve with a rush of ironstone minerality and blood orange acidity

planted in the early 1980s to Clone 337

Zind Humbrecht, Clos Jebsal Pinot Gris Size:6x375ml this is quite a refinedSome sweetness here, but the balance works to create a well integrated whole. It also sets the stage for peach, roasted almond, vanilla pastry and mineral flavors. It turns drier on the finish and needs a little time to come together. Well done. Drink now through 2010. 335 cases made. BS
