Albert Boxler Pinot Blanc Réserve 2021

Drawn from a parcel within the Brand Grand Cru and an older plot behind the house, this is Pinot Blanc at its most transparent. Sliced pear, lemon zest and cold wet stone on the nose — precise, unadorned. The palate is taut and crystalline, all tension and salivating brightness, with a slenderness that feels deliberate rather than lean. Bone-dry and built on the nervous energy that defines 2021.
