James Suckling's Top 100 Wines of France Includes 4 Wines from Trialto Portfolio

"The perfect-scoring Domaine Zind Humbrecht Pinot Gris Alsace Grand Cru Rangen de Thann Clos Saint Urbain 2021 hails from Alsace’s Rangen vineyard, an ultra-steep, low-yielding grand cru site with volcanic stony soils. Domaine Zind Humbrecht’s 2.5-hectare plot of biodynamically grown pinot gris produced a brilliant and impeccably balanced expression of the variety in 2021, achieving an overwhelming smoky and salty minerality that makes this wine one of a kind." -- James Suckling, November 2023

This vision of pinot gris perfection creeps up to you on tip toe. Wonderful quince fruit and smokiness on the rather closed nose, followed by the impeccably balanced and delightful front palate. Then the hammer falls and the overwhelming crushed rock minerality hits you like a landslide that sweeps everything away. And somehow all this feels as weightless as a cloud! From biodynamically grown grapes.

Welcome to the dark side of the dry riesling force where gunpowder meets the stone at the heart of the peach. Dazzling racy intensity. Super-long and pure with a mountain of crushed rock character at the smoky finish. From biodynamically grown grapes.

This is my dream of Cornas in a glass. Incredibly deep, blueberry, smoky and peppery nose with a twist of mystery. Stunning concentration and complexity on the plush and pristine palate, the enormous mineral freshness powering the extremely long, complete finish.

Expressive nose of blackberries, cassis, black pepper, smoke and sweet spices. Medium body with finely grained tannins and fresh acidity. Impressive volume on the mid-palate with a grainy texture. Balanced with a restrained power. It’s concentrated and well-rounded. Long and focused finish with peppery notes. A reference for the appellation in this fresher vintage.
