2021 Weinbach - Pinot Gris Les Caracoles (750ml)
91 Points
"The 2021 Pinot Gris Les Caracoles is named after the Schnackator lieu-dit,

a name perhaps linked to snail-shaped fossils in the limestone soils. It is

just underneath the grand cru Furstentum, on clay and limestone; the

vines are 40-50 years old. This was aged in foudre, and the nose is very

shy. There is a mere faint note of lemon. The palate then presents a cool,

lemon-edged sense of juicy pear but remains streamlined and bright,

giving the merest edge of almond skin bitterness. The finish is bone-dry

and mouth-watering. (Bone-dry)
