Rolly Gassmann Pinot Gris Brandhurst de Bergheim

Though only formally established in the 1960’s (thanks to the joining of the Rolly and Gassmann families), Rolly Gassmann has been producing fantastic, professional wines since the 17th century. With their expert know-how and understanding of wines and grapes, they are able to infuse some wonderful methods into their production, creating delicious, unique wines.

The Pinot Gris Brandurts de Bergheim is an excellent ambassador for Alsace Pinot Gris. This particular wine offers the fruity / floral notes that Pinot Gris is known for, but rather than being too dry, the winemaker expertly creates the perfect balance between dryness and sweetness, while offering soft, mature acidity to refresh and cleanse the palate. To the eye: beautiful lemon yellow with gold hues interspersed. On the nose: the bouquet is rich with apricots, pears, and beautiful, golden raisins. On the palate: much of the same for taste - rich apricots, refreshing pear, and sweet golden raisins. The finish is rich, complex, and long.

This delicious wine pairs perfectly with spicy foods, refreshing and calming the palate. It pairs well with mushrooms and braised meats.
