Etienne Loew Alsace Tokay Pinot Gris Cormier, 2004

Nothing new to report since the last time I had this wine [October 12, 2008]--a rich, expressive Alsace Pinot Gris. It's sweeter than my wife would prefer (she's the Pinot Grigio lover in our family) but I think it carries its fruit quite well. The ripe pears in brown butter flavors get increasingly deep and complex on the long finish. I love it.
