Last tasted from the ten-year-old demi-muid in which it was destined to have spent at a total of at least four years, the Zind-Humbrecht 2010 Pinot Gris Clos Jebsal Selection de Grains Nobles Trie Speciale was at that time not yet even legally wine. But like its author, I’ll venture an interim tasting note to give you a flavor of the thing. Imagine motor oil-weight yet almost weightless concentrates of pear and apricot laced with yeast, candied grapefruit rind, caramel and fleur de sel that coat the palate and linger with truly amazing persistence. What a lot there is to look forward to here through mid-century! (A 2009, tasted alongside and also from barrel, displayed awkwardly oxidative and volatile notes that by no means negated the positive effects of its phenomenal concentration of pit fruits, honey and sorghum and were certainly part of a formidably complex performance, but that led me to believe I would have been describing and rating it at an inopportune moment. “It needs to mellow and ripen in cask yet,” remarked its author.)

Lush, with mouthwatering acidity and the melt-in-your-mouth texture of cotton candy. This finely balanced SGN offers pure fruit flavors of apricot, peach skin and guava, with accents of rose petal and chamomile, balanced by rich layers of spun honey, furniture polish, coconut and vanilla. Features a lasting, spiced finish.
