Alsace Pinot Gris 2020 Domaine Schonheits

Alsace - Pinot Gris

丸みと骨格が寄り添う、アルザスの白。

粘土質と砂利の混じる土壌で育てたピノ・グリを、ステンレスタンクで低温発酵させたキュヴェです。輝きのある淡い黄金色。熟した洋梨や黄桃のふくよかな香りに、ハチミツや白い花のニュアンスが重なります。口に含むと豊かな果実味と花崗岩由来の繊細なミネラルが調和し、柔らかな酸が全体を引き締めます。余韻に残るのは優しいスパイスの風味。鶏肉のクリーム煮やエビとホタテのリゾットとともにどうぞ。

Tasting note

It has a shiny pale golden appearance. When poured into a glass, it has a rich aroma of ripe pear and yellow peach with a hint of honey and white flowers. In the mouth, the richness of the fruit and the delicate minerality of the granite blend together to support a firm structure. The soft acidity tightens the overall flavor, and the aftertaste leaves a pleasant lingering taste of gentle spice and complexity from aging.

Food pairing

White fish meunière, creamed chicken, shrimp and scallop risotto
