2008 Domaine Zind-Humbrecht Pinot Gris Windebuhl
The vines grow on a poor old calcareous soil that contains maritime deposits, sea shells… and lots of magnesium. The soil is quite thin, which helps drainage and compensates for the altitude and the cooler location as it warms up quicker. It is the latest ripening vineyard in the domaine, but it turns out to be a great advantage, as the grapes take longer to achieve full ripeness and therefore also pack up more of the soil character in. Healthy grapes were selected from the oldest vines in order to produce this wine. The fermentation was very slow, but the yeast could not transform all the sugars.
Origin: Alsace, France
Blend: Pinot Ris
