Tasting Notes
In the glass, this Pinot Gris shows a bright, shimmering straw-yellow hue with subtle golden reflections, hinting at richness and ripeness. The nose is expressive and inviting, with notes of ripe pear, baked apple, white peach, and mirabelle plum, layered with floral hints of acacia and rose petal. Gentle undertones of honey, fresh nuts, and a faint smokiness complete the aromatic profile. On the palate, the wine is medium- to full-bodied, with a smooth, almost creamy texture balanced by a lively Alsatian freshness. Flavors of juicy stone fruit, poached pear, and citrus zest are complemented by delicate spice and a touch of sweetness that feels harmonious rather than overt, finishing dry to off-dry depending on your sensitivity. A fine line of acidity keeps everything lifted, making it both food-friendly and delicious on its own. Enjoyable now for its youthful fruit and vibrancy, it will develop added complexity, honeyed notes, and a more layered texture over the next 3–5 years if properly cellared.

Production
The Pinot Gris for Domaine du Moulin de Dusenbach 2022 is sourced from vineyards in Alsace, where cool nights and sunny days allow the grapes to ripen slowly while preserving aromatic intensity. The region’s patchwork of clay- and limestone-based soils contributes both richness and a subtle mineral edge to the wine. Grapes are typically harvested by hand to ensure careful selection of bunches at optimal ripeness, then gently pressed to protect delicate aromatics. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled tanks, allowing the natural fruity and floral character of Pinot Gris to shine, followed by aging on fine lees to add extra roundness and texture before bottling.

Food & Serving
This Pinot Gris is particularly versatile at the table and pairs beautifully with rich poultry dishes, roast chicken, veal in cream sauce, or pork with aromatic herbs. It’s also an excellent match for Asian cuisine—think Thai curries, lightly spiced stir-fries, or sushi with richer fish—as well as foie gras, pâtés, and semi-soft cheeses such as Munster, Comté, or Brie. Serve well-chilled but not ice-cold, ideally around 8–10°C, so the aromatics can open up. A brief 15–20 minutes in a carafe can help the wine unfold its full range of fruit and floral notes, especially in its youth.
