Wine:

Bottled at the end of February to celebrate the arrival of spring, the 2023 white Alsace Pinot Blanc Mise du Printemps embodies the freshness and delicacy of early youth. Tasty and crisp, it will win you over from the first sniff with its delicate floral nose featuring white peach and fresh fruit.

This is a wine for immediate enjoyment, best savored simply.
