Sipp Mack Pinot Gris Tradition

Sipp Mack Pinot Gris Tradition is pale yellow with golden highlights. Nuances of toast and smoke on the nose, backed by honeyed white fruits and a touch of something more earthy. Rich on the palate with delicious fruit, a hint of white pepper spice and a perfect balancing acidity plus the faintest suggestion of sweetness on the finish.

If you've only ever tasted the light, fresh and crisp examples of Pinot Grigio from the north east of Italy, then this Sipp Mack Pinot Gris Tradition from Alsace might just blow your mind! Rich, ripe and spicy, it might share a familial resemblance but it is a mile apart stylistically speaking.

From Jancis Robinson's Purple Pages:
Clay-limestone. RS 13.7 g/l, TA 6.1 g/l. Soft, ripe stone fruit without strong definition but very enjoyable all the same. Honey, bitter grapefruit and lime. 16.5 Points
