Description of the wine Pinot Gris Clos Jebsal 1996
This steep south facing vineyard all terraced is located in our warmest meso-climate, between the Brand and Heimbourg. This protected site always reach the highest ripeness level of the estate. As usual 96 produced an SGN, this wine comes from the remaining grapes harvested with no noble rot, still very rich, that made a complex and ample pinot gris.
