Tasting note: Bruno Sorg Pinot Gris Pfersigberg 2013

Is there any grape that Sorg doesn’t do well? If there is I haven’t come across it. Sorg excels with his generic Muscat and Muscat Grand Cru Pfersigberg, his Riesling GC Florimont is lacy and refined, Gewurztraminer GC Eichberg powerful but well balanced, generic Pinot Blanc refreshing and superb value, and his Pinot Gris GC Pfersigberg fits very well in this star studded line-up. Lovely nose of peach, spice, and honey, flavours of charentais melon and chalk, leading to a long, quite dry mineral finish. This is so well balanced, and anyone who thinks Alsace Pinot Gris is a big blousy wine I suggest to try this superbly balanced wine. I paired this with spicy roast Chinese pork with noodles, and an Ammylou Harris album. Both were great combinations.
