Late Harvest – Pinot Gris
This wine, rich in aromas, with exceptional power and longevity, comes from over-ripe grapes, full of sugar, harvested 4 to 6 weeks after the harvest, sometimes under the first snowfall.
Semi-dry in character, frank with a beautiful attack, this wine develops an opulence and a very characteristic flavour.
Full-bodied, round and long in the mouth, it has aromas of undergrowth.
A versatile wine, it goes well with poultry, foie gras, roasts and game, kidneys, mushrooms or even Alsatian baeckeoffe.
This pinot gris will also make a magnificent aperitif wine.

In Alsace, Pinot-Gris was once called Tokay. A famous legend claims that around 1565 vine plants were brought back from the town of Tokay in Hungary by Baron Lazare de Schwendi. But according to some theories it is likely that the grape variety brought back by Lazarus of Schwendi did not correspond to the famous Hungarian wine. Called Grauer Tokayer before 1870, pinot gris was then successively named Tokay gris, Tokay d’Alsace, Tokay Pinot Gris and finally, since April 1st 2007 Pinot Gris.
