Tasting the Gustave Lorentz Pinot Noir, from Alsace, France – grown on hillsides in the Bergheim region
Starting the 2023 new year by sharing a special wine with you all! Are you looking to explore uncharted, exciting styles of the much-loved Pinot Noir? Look to Alsace in France! A region known otherwise for brilliant, aromatic white wines from Riesling and Gewürztraminer, it also makes some plush, elegant reds from Pinot Noir, surprisingly the only red grape variety permitted in Alsace!
With this episode of What’s In My Glass, here’s introducing you to a beautiful Pinot from the house of Gustave Lorentz, a renowned family of fine winemakers in Alsace with their seventh generation currently in business. I showcased this wine at a tasting experience last month in Bangalore, and to see wine lovers being captivated by the old-world, rustic charm of Pinot Noir was an inexplicable joy in itself, for me!
In my glass: Gustave Lorentz, Pinot Noir, AOC Alsace, France. The wine is imported by Gusto wines, priced between INR 3500-4000 across major cities in India. You can source the wine from www.gustoimports.com. Cheers!
