Product features : Albert Boxler Pinot Gris Brand Grand Cru 2020 — Alsace Pinot Gris
In the mouth
Elegant and finely textured, with admirable length. The palate balances richness with precision, displaying a royal equilibrium between fruit weight and mineral acidity that defines the finest Alsatian Pinot Gris.
On the nose
Floral notes of acacia and honeysuckle, with hints of candied quince and dried apricot. A mineral undertone suggests the limestone-rich Brand vineyard.
On the eye
Brilliant pale gold with greenish reflections
Breeding
Aged in barrels
Excellent with Creole-style fish preparations, Moroccan spiced veal tagine with almonds, and sauce-based fish dishes such as salmon or monkfish. Also pairs beautifully with preserved fruits and lighter poultry dishes. A wine of sufficient complexity to merit consideration as an aperitif for those who appreciate dry Alsatian whites.

DOMAINE ALBERT BOXLER
Based in Niedermorschwihr in the Haut-Rhin, Domaine Albert Boxler farms 14 hectares of steep granite hillsides under the Alsace appellation, with yields deliberately held to 30–35 hl/ha. The Boxler family has been rooted in this village since 1672; Albert Boxler made the estate's first domaine-bottling in 1946, a standard his grandson Jean has upheld since taking the helm in 1996. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this estate for the precision, tension and mineral drive of its whites — Riesling above all — drawn from lean granitic soils that give the wines a clarity and backbone rarely matched in Alsace. A discreet but thoroughly reliable address for lovers of great dry whites.
