Ostertag Pinot Gris Fronholz

Ostertag Pinot Gris Fronholz is a dry white wine from Alsace. It shows a clear golden-yellow colour and aromas of amber, beeswax, wet stone and smoke, pointing to a mineral character. On the palate it has a frank attack, mid-palate richness likely from the lees, and a subtle, long, slightly saline finish. It is a wine for slow sipping, though the bottle empties quickly. It should keep its full form for at least the next ten years. It pairs with fish, oysters and all kinds of shellfish.
