Domaine Zind Humbrecht Clos Jebsal Sélection de Grains Nobles Turckheim Pinot Gris 2007

Vinous 96+ Points: Deep, bright yellow. Great purity and lift to the hugely botrytized aromas of honey, menthol, botanical herbs and mint. Silky on entry, then impossibly concentrated and glycerol in the mid-palate; as chewy as a solid but with exhilarating lift making this impossible to spit. An incredible, endless and utterly unevolved wine that currently shows more structure than fruit. Tastes even sweeter on the back end than its 227 g/l residual sugar would indicate, as there is no sign of alcohol. I'd sock this away for a good 10 to 15 years.
