Pinot Gris Vendage Tardive Pierre Frick 2010

The Pinot Gris Vendage Tardive by Pierre Frick is an Alsatian wine of character, produced using biodynamic principles by a historic 'vigneron' in the area. The grapes are left to ripen on the vine and harvested late-a process that concentrates sugars and aromas, giving the wine a truly intriguing profile. On the nose there are hints of ripe white fruit, pineapple and citrus peel, but also honey, candied fruit... On the palate it is sweetish, a sign of residual sugar, but the sip surprises with balance: fresh, and savory, with great fragrance, it is rich and pleasantly unctuous. Perfect with intense cheeses, fois gras but also some desserts!
