Tasting notes
Laurent Schmitt crafted this "Gritzenberg 400 Millesime" as a tribute to his 400th harvest, right from the heart of Alsace. It's a 2010 vintage, a year that's sealed with his dedication. When you open this bottle, you're not just tasting wine; you're experiencing a piece of history and passion.
This wine makes its appearance in Volume 35 of 'Drops of God.' When Suzuka brought out this special cuvée, it was compared to Bai Juyi's poetry about the beauty of Yang Guifei, likened to a pear blossom in spring rain. There's a mix of sorrow and beauty that's perfectly captured in this wine.
In the glass, it gleams a beautiful gold, showing off its viscosity as it swirls. The aroma is open and inviting, with notes of lychee and rose petals wafting through. On the palate, it offers a lush fruitiness, with sharp yet elegant acidity. The finish is long, allowing you to enjoy its grace long after the sip.
This wine is both rich and complex, yet remains elegantly composed. It's perfect for a special dinner, and serving it well-chilled will enhance its charm even more.
