Marcel Deiss Grasberg 2020

A graceful blend of Gewürztraminer, Pinot Gris, and Riesling, exhibiting the nuances of each varietal, with a focus on the mineral nuances that elevate the as a whole character of the wine.

Unified blend of Riesling, Pinot Gris, and Gewürztraminer, unveiling the unique terroir of the Grasberg lieu-dit. The nose is highlighted by the character of orange blossom, tinned peach, and bruised apple, during the taste is marked by a vibrant texture, with a preponderance of minerals and spice. The conclusion is long and satisfying, with a mild note of stone, salt, and honey. The altogether body is medium, and the ABV is moderate, with a crisp acidity. This wine is a good match for a variety of dishes, highlighting Thai cuisine. I appreciate the craftsmanship of Marcel Deiss.

Decadent and silky wine with a sweet and fruity profile, accompanied by the warm, toasted flavors of dried roasted corn.\n Its high viscosity and fat content make it a luxurious pairing for dishes with rich, savory flavors, such as seafood like lobster and langoustine, or those with spicy or aromatic elements like ginger.\n Despite its high residual sugar content, this wine is surprisingly fresh and long-lived, with a richness that can be savored for many years.\n Grown on red limestone soils, this wine is a testament to the terroir's influence on the final product.
