Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Light acidity and a crisp green-fruited texture offer fine freshness in this bright wine. The acidity is a delicious streak in the not quite dry final flavor.

Château d’Orschwihr Sparkling Blend - NV

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
With its pale gold color, this is obviously a sweet wine. Raisins, bold acidity and spiced mango blend well together in a wine that is maturing well. It is good to drink now, but worth aging.

Château d’Orschwihr Pinot Gris - 2008

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Sweet and perfumed, but with a sense of proportion despite its alcohol. It has fine ripe fruits, star fruit and mango prominent, while the acidity keeps the exuberance in check. The final flavor brings in fresh white fruits. For aging 4–5 years.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Steely, crisp, with a tight edge of green fruits. The structure is dominant at this stage in the development of this rapier-like wine. Age for 3–4 years.

Château d’Orschwihr Pinot Blanc - 2009

0 out of 0 people thought this note was helpful.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Just assuming the wonderful flavors of mature Riesling, this wine still has hints of fresh white currants. The toast and smoke flavors are more dominant, with a core of minerality and acidity. Rich, rather than sweet.
