Albert Boxler Pinot Gris Brand Grand Cru 2022

Citrus pith and woodsmoke on the nose, an arresting combination. The palate is taut and direct, with a precision that cuts clean through the mid-palate. Notably, this marks the first dry expression Boxler has produced from the Brand, a site that typically yields off-dry to medium-sweet wines. A fine phenolic grip keeps things interesting, though the heat on the finish is hard to ignore.
