Appellation Alsace Controlee Z

2011 Alsace Pinot Blanc

The Pierre Frick Appellation Alsace Controlée Z is a delightful expression of Pinot Blanc that perfectly captures the essence of its Alsace origins. This white wine showcases a bright and refreshing profile, marked by a medium body that delivers a smooth and inviting mouthfeel. Its refreshing acidity adds a lively quality, enhancing the wine's overall vibrancy. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing lovely notes of green apple, pear, and subtle citrus, which are harmoniously balanced by a delicate touch of floral undertones. The wine is bone dry, making it incredibly food-friendly and suitable for pairing with a variety of dishes. With its graceful composition, this vintage from 2011 demonstrates the craftsmanship and terroir-driven character that Alsace wines are celebrated for.

France

While it was not the first country to master winemaking, no other country has determined the course of wine and wine culture as much as France. From the sparkling wines of Champagne to the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay of Burgundy; from Bordeaux's sumptuous blends to Alsace's Riesling; and from the Loire Valley's Sauvignon Blancs to exciting new regions like Pays d'Oc in the south, France has given the world nearly all the major styles and grape varieties that dominate what we drink today. There are numerous reasons why France and wine are so inextricably linked, but perhaps the foremost is geography. Few places can rival France's unique array of hot and cool-climate regions and the abundant maritime influences and mountainous terrain found throughout the country.
