2009 Pinot Gris Vendange Tardive, Moselle Luxembourgeoise AOP, Luxembourg

Botrstiy on the nose, partly dried and partly candied yellow fruit, spicy with some bread, earthy notes in the background. Fairly cool on the palate, very polished, sweetish, partly preserved and partly candied pomaceous fruit, more light spicy notes and bread, herbaceous and mineral traces, fairly prominent, slightly lemony acidity provides balance, quite charming and shows its origin, very slightly bitter on a good finish.

Best to drink: Bis 2016+. What our ratings mean
