Albert Boxler Pinot Gris Grand Cru "Brand"

2021
All grapes are harvested by hand and no fining. After pressing, cold settling before fermentation begins and fermentation is is all natural. Vinified in foudre.
Pinot Gris Grand Cru Brand offers a deep, clear, bright and intense bouquet with stony and smoky bacon aromas. The nose is fresh and pure, with even some lemon aromas.
"Boxler proves convincingly that Pinot Gris deserves a place in your cellar alongside your outstanding bottles of Burgundian Chardonnay. None more so than his bottling from the famed Turckheim grand cru of Brand, where steep southern exposure on granite allows the vines to deliver grapes with the perfect balance of rich, smoky depth and hot stone minerality, built to age, with sublime aromas, textures, and flavors. On a recent trip to London with Kermit, our wine list find of the weekend was a bottle from vintage 2014 with exquisite Indian cuisine." - Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant
