Description of the wine Pinot Gris Clos Jebsal - Vendange Tardive 2016
Tasting notes
8/2017: intense gold colour. As noble rot was in small proportion, the nose remains very fruity and elegant for such a wine. There are lots of white fruit, peach, apricots aromatics and only a little honey on the nose. The palate doesn’t come as a surprise, the nose has already announced a seductive and gently sweet mouth. Nice length, but no unnecessary weight. This wine will go far and should keep its seductive and harmonious balance.
The Clos Jebsal of Turckheim
The wines from Clos Jebsal are discreet in their youth, often marked with flinty or smoky aromas. The expression of fruit linked to the concentration by botrytis is coaxed out with some time in bottle
