Domaine Zind-Humbrecht Pinot Gris Rotenberg, Alsace, France 2021 Frecciarossa Hot-stone undertonesA remarkable pinot gris that radically breaks the mold. Although this has stunning roasted apricot and smoky aromas in the nose it is actually a very cool and restrained wine with enormous mineral tension. Some may find this too extreme, but for us it has an almost overwhelming beauty. 96 Pts James Suckling
