Description
Henry and Catherine Fuchs are in their mid-forties and the third generation of the family to run this splendid 10 hectare domaine situated in the quality heartland of Alsace at Ribeauville, a village renowned for its rich and opulent dry white wines. The Fuchs use no weed-killers or man-made fertilisers on their vineyards which goes a long way to restricting yields. This Pinot Gris shows a touch of honeyed sweetness with a rich mouthfeel, still fresh with smoky undergrowth characteristics. Very rich even by Alsace Pinot Gris standards with a relatively high degree of residual grape sugars on the palate.
