2005 Pinot Blanc, Cave de Pfaffenheim
Filed under: Cave de Pfaffenheim

15 Aug |

Plump and soft, yet crisply fruity, with ripe apple and pear aromas, a textbook Alsace Pinot Blanc that's almost as much of a mouthful as its source: 'The Cave Vinicole de Pfaffenheim and Guberschwihr'. Not the most marketable name, but wines from this ultra-reliable co-op (often 'Best in France') are sought-after worldwide. The place is supplied by contented, well-paid vignerons, many of whom own Grand Cru vineyards. They'd doubtless drink this lovely white with river fish or quiche.

Stylish, fragrant, spicy Alsace Gewürz in a handy half-bottle -perfect for a midweek Chinese or Thai supper. All the depth of character you'd expect from one of France's most respected co-operative wineries: the Cave Vinicole de Pfaffenheim & Guberschwihr. This gleaming, efficient cellar is supplied by conscientious (and deservedly well-paid) growers, many with Grand Cru vineyards. 'Hornstein' is one of their premium cuvées, a best-seller worldwide.
