Josmeyer Pinot Gris Le Fromenteau 2021

A faint flicker of reduction on the nose, then bright and precise on the palate. Green pear, lemon balm and a thread of cool earth give it focus without weight. Skipping malo kept the acidity razor-clean, there's a snappy, coiled energy here that speaks to real aging potential. Parcels from Wettolsheim, Wintzenheim, Turckheim and a 45-year-old Hengst Grand Cru plot bring genuine depth beneath the freshness. Bone-dry and taut now, but give it time.
