6371 GERARD SCHUELLER ALSACE PINOT GRIS RESERVE 2014 750ml

Since the beginning, this Pinot Gris Réserve 2014 has been unusually balanced and comfortable. (2012 and 2016 were heavy weight and too much powerful in the early stage). Dry, mineral, refreshing and complex.

Bruno Schueller’s wines are all masterpieces, but each is so individual that it is hard to say which is the best.  Well, it would be a bit uncouth to rank them in the first place.

Among them, Pinot Gris Réserve may be the most strikingly distinctive. While the classic Pinot Gris achieves an exquisite balance through a blend of several vineyards, the Réserve is given a firmer structure and tannic depth from clay-rich soils such as Hohrain, making it far more full-bodied, powerful, and complex than the classic cuvée. It is the most weighty wine in Schueller’s entire lineup.
