There is a beguiling sense of energy to the delineated and overtly mineral-inflected flavors that possess a highly appealing mouthfeel while delivering outstanding depth and length on the chalky finish

Weinbach, Pinot Gris Altenbourg SGN other_regions_australia Opens very slowly(for 375 ml.; 9. 9% alcohol, 161 g l r. s. and 10 grams of acidity) Deep yellow gold. Carnal, exotic aromas of orange blossom, game, smoke and earth. Superripe, thick and powerful, but given great penetration by almost painful acidity. Wonderfully dense and concentrated wine with a tactile, salty finish that refuses to let up. Like the '07 Riesling SGN, this is just hinting at the complexity to come. Stephen Tanzer
