Product description
The 2021 Domaine Zind-Humbrecht Pinot Gris Heimbourg is a standout wine from the Alsace region of France. Sourced from the Heimbourg vineyard in Turckheim, the grapes benefit from the unique microclimate created by the vineyard’s west-facing slope, limestone-rich soils, and cooling valley winds, resulting in a refined, terroir-driven expression.
Colour: Intense yellow with golden hues.
Aroma: Subtle notes of pear, peach, and white fruit, along with hints of smokiness and beeswax.
Palate: The wine is very dry but offers a velvety texture, with vibrant acidity balancing the richness. Flavors unfold slowly in the glass, revealing layers of orchard fruit and a touch of minerality.
Body: Medium-bodied with depth and elegance.
Finish: Long and smooth, with lingering acidity and mineral undertones.
This vintage is recommended for cellaring, with optimal drinking between 2026 and 2039. Decanting is advisable if opened young to allow the wine to fully express its nuanced profile. It pairs wonderfully with rich seafood dishes, poultry, or creamy cheeses, enhancing the wine's bright acidity and texture. With an alcohol content between 12.5% and 13.6%, it offers both precision and versatility in food pairings.
