2020 Frey-Sohler Alsace Pinot Gris Vieilles Vignes
From: Alsace, France Varietal: Pinot Gris Tasting Notes: A brilliant golden yellow with the ever-so-slightly pinkish tint of Pinot Gris skins, this wine has subtle aromas of undergrowth, dried fruits, golden apple skin, and savory notes. The wine is supple, enchanting, precise, and structured on the palate. Pairing: This wine pairs beautifully with savory, rich dishes inspired by Alsatian cuisine. Think foie gras, chicken with a creamy sauce, braised pork, sausages, or even fish served with a dill cream sauce. For our pairing recommendation today, serve this gorgeous white wine with Chicken Schnitzel with Pan-Roasted Grapes to fully embrace the Alsatian theme. From Lidey Heuck for NYT Cooking, this recipe will let the food AND the wine shine. About Frey-Sohler.
