2021 Pierre Sparr Grand Reserve Pinot Blanc, Alsace

From: Sigolsheim, Alsace, FranceVarietal: Pinot Blanc Taste: In the glass, it is a pale yellow hue with soft golden highlights. The wine is expressive and nuanced on the nose, with aromas of ripe pear, yellow apple, and delicate white flowers. Subtle notes of citrus zest, particularly lemon peel, add vibrancy and subtle notes of almond and honey lend depth. The wine's aromatic precision is classic Alsace’s terroir, where cool fall temperatures allow the grapes to develop beautiful aromatics without sacrificing freshness. This Pinot Blanc balances fruit, acidity, and texture on the palate. Flavors of ripe pear and crisp green apple up front, supported by refreshing citrus undertones and a subtle minerality that provides structure and elegance. The medium-bodied mouthfeel is smooth and refined, with a delicate creaminess that lingers with bright, clean acidity. Pairing: Its crisp acidity and fruit-driven profile pair beautifully with lighter fare such as grilled white fish, shrimp scampi
