Domaine Zind-Humbrecht 2001 Grand Cru Clos Saint-Urbain Rangen de ThannSéléction des Grains Nobles Pinot Gris (Alsace)
The ultimate in SGN wines, because it not only has richness, sweetness, and botrytis, but it also offers acidity, balance and total seduction. There are flavors of peaches and mirabelles, but they are really all submerged in the amazing elegance of a wine that will age indefinitely. — R.V. (4/1/2005) — 97 -

Domaine Zind-Humbrecht 2002 Grand Cru Clos Saint-Urbain Rangen de Thann Pinot Gris (Alsace)
This is a wonderful wine, which comes from the vineyard in the south of Alsace that the Humbrechts brought back from obscurity. It has both intensity and also great elegance. It has flavors of currants, layers of orange zest and some fresh acidity. But it also has spice which lies gently with the fruit flavors. The taste just goes on forever. — R.V. (4/1/2005) — 96 -

Domaine Zind-Humbrecht 2001 Clos Jebsal Séléction des Grains Nobles Pinot Gris (Alsace)
Smoky aromas followed by the explosion of sweet fruits, with flavors of ripe oranges, of wild flower honey and acidity. This is gorgeous now, but its sweetness should be tamed with aging. A fantastic wine. — R.V. (4/1/2005) — 96 -

Domaine Zind-Humbrecht 2009 Turckheim Clos Jebsal Vendanges Tardive Pinot Gris (Alsace)
Initially, the acidity shoots through this wine. Then it reveals equally intense honey and spice flavors. The wine is complex, with yellow fruits laced with nutmeg and finished with a tender, crisp aftertaste. It is never too sweet, a beautifully balanced wine in which all the elements play their part. — R.V. (12/1/2011) — 95 -

René Muré 2004 Clos St Landelin Vorbourg Grand Cru Pinot Gris (Alsace)
Stunning aromas of orange, clove and gingerbread follow through to a dense palate with intriguing notes of white chocolate and honey. The high level of sweetness is effectively countered by bright acidity. Serve with a mousse of foie gras. — W.E. (4/1/2009) — 95 -

Domaine Marcel Deiss 2001 Sélection de Grains Nobles Pinot Gris (Alsace)
This is not so much a sweet wine (although there is plenty of marmalade flavor here) as it is hugely rich and concentrated. It is like drinking drops of nectar, with honey, dryness and ripe fruit. At this early stage in its development the richness dominates—it needs time to develop. Imported by New Castle Imports. — R.V. (2/1/2006) — 95
