Tasting

It has a golden yellow colour with hints of green and thick tears. The Pinot Gris Grand Cru Spiegel 2002 has an intense nose with delicate scents of mushrooms, undergrowth and slightly smoky notes. Well-balanced, fine and delicate on the palate, with beeswax notes, it offers a very beautifully lively mellow, very long finish.
