Tasting notes
The 1999 Tokay-Pinot Gris Clos Windsbuhl has smoky mineral aromas. Medium-bodied, this silky-textured wine offers layers of apples, peaches, and white berries in its rich, lush, yet highly detailed, lace-like character. It has outstanding fat and depth, yet its fruit is, at present, youthfully restrained. This wine has immense complexity and an intense, powerful character. Drink it between 2005 and 2015.

Exotic yet reserved aromas of mandarin orange, quince and nuts; almost riesling-like. Generous and rich, but with wonderful freshness and precision of flavor. Strong but harmonious acids perfectly balance the wine 48 grams per liter residual sugar. This has the vinosity and grip of a riesling. Laid-back and impressively long.
