2022 Domaine Zind Humbrecht "Rotenberg" - Alsace - 3 Bottles (0.75L)

This Pinot Gris Rotenberg 2022, signed Domaine Zind Humbrecht, embodies the purest expression of the lieu-dit Rotenberg in Wintzenheim, Alsace. Planted on steep slopes of oligocene red limestone, this late-harvest vineyard, facing west/northwest, benefits from a shifted sunshine that preserves remarkable acidity and gives the wine a rare mineral tension for a Pinot Gris.

Produced biodynamically (Demeter certified) by Olivier Humbrecht MW, this wine comes from vines of about 41 years old and is vinified with indigenous yeasts, then aged on its lees. The result is a dry wine (residual sugar index 1), with a bright yellow color, a discreet citrus nose and a more expressive, suave and velvety palate, revealing aromas of white fruits, honey and exotic notes, all carried by a long, saline finish.

This Pinot Gris pairs wonderfully with seared scallops, herb-roasted poultry, river fish, fragrant Asian dishes or pressed cheeses such as Gruyère aged. Its structure and freshness make it an elegant dining wine, capable of sublating varied cuisines.

With an optimal tasting window of 2025–2040+, this 2022 vintage will age gracefully in the cellar, developing complexity and depth while preserving its liveliness. An exceptional choice for dry, mineral, age-worthy Alsace wines, signed by one of the region’s greatest estates.

Ideal for enriching a cellar of Alsace white wines, offering to enthusiasts, or accompanying a festive meal, this Pinot Gris Rotenberg 2022 – Domaine Zind Humbrecht combines the estate’s prestige, terroir typicity, and immediate pleasure, while promising good evolution.
